G                 B                      Em F
You say you want the truth, but you can't take it
              C   Cm               G
So I give you lies    I give you lies
     G                B                    Em F
You say you want the best, but you destroy it
                C  Cm               G
So I keep it inside     I keep it inside

               Em                         D              C
I tell you something It's a double-edged sword you're giving
                               G                                  D
And I can't see the truth in living When we hide behind a wall of fear
                 Em                   D              C
And you don't see it It's a twisted dream you believe in
                          G                                             D
And what's the use in pretending? Let's make the smoke and mirrors disappear

            G                     D
So there I said it And I won't apologize to you anymore
            Em                   D
Cause I'm a grown-ass man And I won't live again
         C               Bm                 Am
And I'm sick and tired of living in your shadows
            G                     D
So there I said it And I won't apologize to you anymore
            Em                   D
Cause I'm a grown-ass man And I don't understand
 C             Bm                 Am              G
Why I should be living in the shadows So there I said it

    G               B                   Em F
You wanna hear my voice, my mind, my demons
             C  Cm                   G
But not too much     Or you'll give up

               Em                         D              C
I tell you something It's a double-edged sword you're giving
                               G                                  D
And I can't see the truth in living When we hide behind a wall of fear
                 Em                   D              C
And you don't see it It's a twisted dream you believe in
                          G                                             D
