I wake up every morning with my head up in a daze

I’m not sure if I should say this, fuck, I’ll say it anyway

Everybody tries to tell me that I’m going through a phase
E7
I don’t know if it’s a phase, I just wanna feel okay, yeah
Am
I battle with depression, but the question still remains
G
Is this post-traumatic stressing or am I suppressing rage?

And my doctor tries to tell me that I’m going through a phase
E7
Yeah, it’s not a fucking phase, I just wanna feel okay, okay
Am
Yeah, I struggle with this bullshit every day

I think I’m going nowhere like a rat trapped in a maze
G
Every wall that I knocked down is just a wall that I replace

I’m in a race against myself, I try to keep a steady pace
E7
How the fuck will I escape if I never close my case?

Oh my God, I keep on stressing, every second that I waste

Is another second sooner to a blessing I won’t take
F
But my therapist will tell me that I’m going through a stage
E7
Yeah, it’s not a fucking stage, I just wanna feel okay
Am
Okay, motherfucker, now you got my attention
G
I need to change a couple things ’cause something is missing
F
And what if I were to lie? Tell you everything is fine
Every single fucking day I get closer to the grave, I am terrified
Am
I fell asleep at the wheel again
G
Crashed my car just to feel again
F E7
It obliterates me, disintegrates me, annihilates me

[Chorus]

‘Cause I’m about to break down, searching for a way out

I’m a liar, I’m a cheater, I’m a non-believer, I’m a popular, popular monster

I break down, falling into love now with falling apart
E7
I’m a popular, popular fucking monster

[Breakdown]
Am
Yeah, here we go again, motherfucker, oh
Am
We’re sick and tired of wondering
Am
Praying to a god that you don’t believe
Am
We’re searching for the truth in the lost and found
Am N.C.
So the question I ask is, oh, where the fuck is your god now?
Am Dm Am Dm

[Chorus]
‘Cause I’m about to break down, searching for a way out
I’m a liar, I’m a cheater, I’m a non-believer, I’m a popular, popular monster
Am G F
I break down, falling into love now with falling apart

I’m a popular, popular monster
