C                      C
My skin was steel, you made it rust
      C           G
And I just can't drink this off
C                                G
Hoping that it gets me through today
       C                        G
Carved into my skin, I'm just a fragile little kid
          C
I've been branded by this
        G
My self-portrait lacks innocence


[Chorus]
         Em
You keep saying that I matter
                               G
But it doesn't make me feel anything
          Em
Just stop saying that there's next year
                                         G
'Cause I don't think I'll make it past today


[Verse 2]
C
I was holding my own
                                 G
But then your fingers traced the cracks in my bones
                C
You said, "Just open up, kid
                           G
Then you can make yourself whole again"


[Chorus]
         Em
You keep saying that I matter
                               G
But it doesn't make me feel anything
          Em
Just stop saying that there's next year
                                         G
'Cause I don't think I'll make it past today


[Bridge]
Em  D               C
It should have been me
Em   D          C
Laid out on the concrete
Em        D          C
I have to leave this body
Em             D      C
Please, just remember me


[Chorus]
         Em
You keep saying that I matter
                               G
But it doesn't make me feel anything
          Em
Just stop saying that there's next year
                                         G
'Cause I don't think I'll make it past today


[Outro]
   C                   G
My skin was steel, but now its rust
     C             G
I'm giving in, I'm fucking crushed
C                              G
You just couldn't even care at all
    C
But maybe I'll get over this
    G
And maybe I'll grow up from it
    C                         G
But all I keep thinking is it should have been me
C                 G
It should've been me
