Verse 1

G* Bm*
So I took my medication and I poured my trauma out
C*
On some sad-eyed middle aged man's over-priced new leather couch
Em* G*
And we argued about Jesus, finally found some middle ground
I said I'm cured

Verse 2

And I've divvied up my anger into thirty separate parts
Keep the bad shit in my liver and the rest around my heart
I'm still angry at my parents for what their parents did to them
But it's a start

Pre-Chorus

But I ignore things and I move sideways
Till I forget what I felt in the first place
At the end of the day I know there are worse ways to stay alive 

Chorus

'Cause everyone's growing
And everyone's healthy
I'm terrified that I might never have met me
Oh, if my engine works perfect on empty
I guess I'll drive
I guess I'll drive

Verse 3

So I forgot my medication
Fell into a manic high
Spent my savings at a Lulu
C N.C.
Now I'm suffering in style
Why is pain so damn impatient
Ain't like it's got a place to be
Keeps rushing me

Pre-Chorus

But I ignore things and I move sideways
Till I forget what I felt in the first place
At the end of the day I know there are worse ways to stay alive 

Chorus

'Cause everyone's growing
And everyone's healthy
I'm terrified that I might never have met me
Oh, if my engine works perfect on empty
I guess I'll drive

Bridge

And if all my life was wasted
I don't mind, I'll watch it go
It's better to die numb than feel it all 
Oh, if all my time was wasted
I don't mind, I'll watch it go
Yeah it's better to die numb than feel it all

Pre-Chorus

Em* G*
But I ignore things and I move sideways
C* G*
Till I forget what I felt in the first place
C* G* D
At the end of the day Lord knows there are worse ways to stay alive

Chorus

'Cause everyone's growing
And everyone's healthy
I'm terrified that I might never have met me
Oh, if my engine works perfect on empty
I guess I'll drive
I guess I'll drive
