You've been told for way too long that you're the one to blame

  D
You never mean to hurt yourself or anyone around you
  Em
But trouble's like a curse, a curse you didn't choose

The house you're in is like a cage

It's hard to breathe

But hard to leave

Don't let anyone turn your unique into flaws

That hunger to be seen and to be understood

Black sheep, they call me that too
  Em
I've wrestled with the dark
         C       G
But I made it through
    C       G
And so will you
