[Verse]
C                                       D
I’m nearing the end of my fourth year
G                                                 Em
I feel like I’ve been lacking crying too many tears
C                                                                 D
Everyone seemed to say it was so great
G                                                 Em
But did I miss out was it a huge mistake
C                                                 D
I can’t help the fact I like to be alone
G                                                 Em
It might sound kinda sad, but that’s just what I seem to know
C                                                                 D
I tend to handle things usually by myself
G                                                 Em
And I can’t ever seem to try and ask for help

[Pre-Chorus]
Am                                 D
I’m sitting here, crying in my prom dress
G                                                 Em
I’d be the prom queen if crying was a contest
Am                                                                 D
Makeup is running down, feelings are all around
G                                                 Em
How did I get here I need to know

[Chorus]
Am                                                 D
I guess I maybe had a couple expectations
G                                                                 Em
Thought I’d get to them, but no I didn’t
Am                                                 D
I guess I thought that prom was gonna be fun
G                                                                                 Em
But now I’m sitting on the floor and all I wanna do is run

[Verse]
C                                                 D
I keep collections of masks upon my wall
G                                                 Em
To try and stop myself from revealing it all
C                                                                 D
Affecting others is the last thing I would do
G                                                 Em
I keep to myself though I want to break through
C                                                 D
I hold so many small regrets
G                                                 Em
And what-ifs down inside my head
C                                 D
Some confidence it couldn’t hurt me
G                                                 Em
My demeanor is often misread
