Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]I've[C][G][Am][C][G]
[Am]got[C]
[G]tha[Am]t lef[C]ty[G] curse[C]
Where everything I do is flipped
And awkwardly reversed
You're seldom known and
barely missed
I always put myself
In destructive situations
I need oxygen
To be exposed where no one goes,
where no one's [Am]been

[Verse 2]
When it all comes crashing
[Am]Now [C]we'v[G]e [Am]got a[C] bi[G]g, big[C]
[G]Mess on our hand[Am]s to[C] nig[G]ht.

[G]Now we've got a [Am]big, [C]big
[G]Mess on our hand[Am]s toni[C]ght.
[G]Somebody

[Verse 3]
[C]get my phone
So I can throw it in a public
Pool and watch it float
And as [G]it slowly sinking down,
Become a [F]social ghost
In[C]side [F]a box, cut at the top
To let some [C]light shine in
To re[G]mind me what I've done
[C]and where I've [Am]been
When it all [C]comes[G][Am]
[C]crashing[G]â?¦

[Verse 4]
Now we've got a [Am]big, [C]big

Now we've got a [Am]big, big, [C]big, big
[G]Mess on our [Am]hands, on [C]our hands.
[G]Don't give in,

[Verse 5]
[Am]don't give up,
[G]I'll be [Bdim]gone.
[C]You don't look inn[Dm]ocent enough.
[Am]We're too [B]young to be crit[C]ics
We won't miss [F]anything at all
[Am]Don't give in, d[G]on't give up
[C]I don't look inn[Dm]ocent with
this [Am]big big m[G]ess on,
I'll [C]say [F]something [C]else.
[Dm][C]
