Verse:

A                 C         G
It’s four o’ clock the TV’s on
A                           F                G
My mind is shut off and my own thoughts are gone
A                   C            G
I change the channel I change my mind
    F                       G
I change my life I want to leave it all behind

Chorus:

      A    E          C         G
Cause I don't have a mind of my own
      E                   F           G
I am influenced by everything that I see
    A  E     C       G
And I can't help it now
F                 E
Everything in my life just thinks for me

Verse:

A                             C              G
Can't help this habit I'm in love with my disease
A                           F             G
Worshipping my idle time a life I cannot seize
A                             C        G
Trapped by depression and I sleep all day
     F                          G
But Xanax, Valium, Ativan will make it all ok

      A       F            C        D
It's so much more than a cry for attention
    F      C         G          A
No loving hands can soothe this ache
E        F           C            D
So much more than a war with the world
        F                        E
It's my own degradation, it's my own self hate

A               F
I’ll preach my pessimism
 A                F              G
Right out loud to anyone who'll listen
A          F           G
I'm not afraid to be alive
E
I'm afraid to be alone

Verse:

 A       E        C        G
Late at night my monsters find me
     A          E         F      G
From under the bed or out of my past
A     E           C        G
All alone with nobody to talk to
F            E
Sanity gets put to the test

A          E         C         G
I close my eyes but I'm still haunted
     A       E        F          G
Sometimes I get too twisted to sleep
   A       E             C           G
As all my world crumbles all around me
      F                       E
Inspiration becomes admission of defeat

      A  E            C         G
Cause I don't have a mind of my own
A  E            C         D
I don't have a mind of my own
A  E            C         G
I don't have a mind of my own

F                 E                    A
Everything in my life just thinks for me
