C
Hands pressed to your thighs as if you could protect
G                                                    Am
Them from the thoughts that you've had that conspire against them
                                 F
Even though you need them to get by
C                                    G
Last chance, be a kid with a cereal box
                                             Am
Had a dream in your head but you woke up and lost it
                            F
And you only get a few more candles
                          C
Before you're too old to try again, to be a wreck
    G                                Am
To get the sympathy of friends who see that you're not there yet
          F
But they say that you'll get there


[Chorus]
         C

And then all of a sudden you're a bad liar
           G
'Cause you said that it will get better
    Am
But all of a sudden it's a trashfire
          F
And you can't put it out, can't put it out
C
All of a sudden you're a hostage
    G
To things you thought you wanted
Am
All of a sudden you're a hot mess
         F
And you can't sweat it out, can't sweat it out
 C   G   Am   F
Oh, oh, oh


[Verse 2]
C
Gets tough being young
                   G
But you do it for kicks

Kinda hate how it taste
                     Am
But you eat it with chopsticks

Existentialist
      F
You wanna know what all of this is
 C
Four more months

It's just a season
 G
Cut your loss

You'll start to think that
   Am
Things you have are things you lose
       F
It's normal but it's not the truth


[Chorus]
     C
And all of a sudden you're a bad liar
             G
'Cause you said that it will get better
     Am
But all of a sudden it's a trashfire
           F
And you can't put it out, can't put it out
 C
All of a sudden you're a hostage
      G
To things you thought you wanted
 Am
All of a sudden you're a hot mess
          F
And you can't sweat it out, can't sweat it out
C   G   Am  F
Oh, oh, oh
C    G  Am   F
Oh, oh, oh


[Outro]
     C
And all of a sudden you're a bad liar
 G
All of a sudden it's a trashfire
           Am
But if anybody treats you like a hazard
         F
You're the one with your thumb on the lighter
