CFC
"I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks"
CFC
Some bumper sticker wisdom while you're walking the plank
CFC
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks
CFC
The illusion of protection in the face of a tank
[Chorus]
Dm
You were a student
Em
You were a soldier
F
You were a symbol
G
They made you a martyr
[Verse 2]
CFC
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thank you
CFC
When the nationalist demagogues eat the desperately confused
CFC
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thank you
CFC
We're so far past civility it feels useless to argue
[Chorus]
Dm
But love isn't passive
Em
A trick or a tactic
F
Tried to call action
G
So, go let 'em have it
[Bridge]
FCFC
When I open my perspective from my fear of the world
FCC/BC
For the daughter I was trying to raise
FCFC
With the total sum of everything asleep in my lap
FCC/B
I could hear I was the one in my way
FCFG
You said life is sweet, but my brain's got teeth
CFC
No lyrics
CFC
No lyrics
[Verse 3]
CFC
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thank you
CFC
You said acceptance and forgiveness, I said nobody asked you
CFC
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me now
CFC
I have to drop it sometime, but I hate that I have to
[Chorus]
Dm
Oh, but it saved me
Em
Oh, but it changed me
F
It shaped and remade me
G
Oh, what it gave me
[Bridge 2]
FCFC
I was burned out on obsessing with the end of the world
FCC/BC
And the daughter I was helping to raise
FCFC
With the total sum of everything awake in my lap
FCC/B
I could hear what you were trying to say
FCFG
You said life is sweet, but my brain's got teeth
FCFG
You said life is sweet, but my brain's got teeth
FCFG
You said life is sweet, if I let it be
[Outro]
CFC
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks
CFC
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks
CFC
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks
CFC
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks
