♫ Verse 1:
C           Bm           
  Skin and bones, stomach aches
C  
  Lucid dreams, hold my breath
            
When I'm wide awake
C         Bm
  Connecticut, dissociate
C
  Maybe I should buy a house

In a town upstate

♫ Pre-Chorus: 
Gm               G              C     G/Gm    Bm    G         C       
If I could, I'd wake myself up when I Am somebody that I'm proud of

♫ Chorus 1: 
 C                            Bm
I'm getting undressed for my lover
                       C        
And praying she don't hate all my skin like I do
C                                 Bm
  I'm reading books and drinking coffee
                C 
Stepping on a scale I keep in the bathroom
                    C 
The water goes downhill, and still
   Bm                                C     
I swim against the current with two arms that cannot fly
                   C   Bm                    C 
And I don't feel alive,  no, I don't feel alive

♫ Verse 2:
C       Bm          
  Telehealth, TV episodes
C      
  Swallow seeds, but the fruit never seems to grow
C     Bm     
  Validate, what I know
C
  What I believe in and everywhere I wanna go

♫ Pre-Chorus: 
Gm               G              C     G/Gm    Bm    G         C       
If I could, I'd wake myself up when I Am somebody that I'm proud of

♫ Chorus 2: 
C                              Bm
I’m paying three different psychologists
             C 
Trying to remember who I told what story to
C                          Bm
I’m writing feelings in a journal
                             C       
Cuz' that’s what people who have their **** together seem to do
                    C 
The water goes downhill, and still
   Bm                                C       
I swim against the current with two arms that cannot fly
                   C   Bm                    C 
And I don't feel alive,  no, I don't feel alive

♫ Post-Chorus: 
C             Bm              C                    
I keep coming up for air and ending up with water in my
C             Bm              C 
I keep coming up for air and ending up with water in my lungs

♫ Chorus 3: 
C                           Bm
I’m learning how to set my boundaries
                C          
How to have compassion for myself and for my mind
C                           Bm
I’m turning off my ******* cell phone
                    C     
And trying to have honest conversations in real life
                     C   
The water goes downhill, and still
   Bm                                C        
I swim against the current with two arms that cannot fly
                   C   Bm                    C 
And I don't feel alive,  no, I don't feel alive

I keep coming up for air and ending up with water in my

I keep coming up for air and ending up with water in my
C             Bm              C                           C 
I keep coming up for air and ending up with water in my lungs
