tune Transposed: semitones

[Cm]Some days feel like they are [Ab]a loss before getting out of bed
[Eb]A shame spiral that [G]devolves into existential dread
[Cm]And then the guilt that [Ab]follows at the weakness you possess
[Eb]To feel like this to be like [G]this, why am I such a mess
[Cm]A self fulfilling prophecy [Ab]that doesn't have to be
[Eb]We don't need to [G]be victim of our biology
[Cm]When the walls [Ab]feel like they're
[Eb]Closing in, when [G]darkness blankets all
[Cm]You're not alone, it's not forever, [Ab]there's help that you can call
[Ab]There's nothing wrong [Eb]with feeling wrong
[G]You can be fixed [Cm]if you are broken
[Ab]Some of us [Eb]need help becoming strong
[G]Because we're [Cm]short on serotonin
[G]Well a sickness [Cm]in your brain
[Ab]It's a sickness [Eb]all the same
[G]And if you're [Cm]fixing for a change
[Ab]Then you can [Eb]fix the pain
[G]Mental health [Cm]is paramount
[Ab]But it's [Eb]not guaranteed
[G]Some of us must work [Cm]harder for that which comes naturally
[Ab]But the toil of the ascent [Eb]brings the beauty of the peak
[G]The poet and the author [Cm]offer up their worst critiques
[Ab]I'm chemically unbalanced, but [Eb]I am not ashamed
[G]To admit I take a pill [Cm]to calm down my mind's hurricane
[Ab]There's nothing wrong [Eb]with feeling wrong
[G]You can be fixed [Cm]if you are broken
[Ab]Some of us [Eb]need help becoming strong
[G]Because we're [Cm]short on serotonin
[G]Because we're [Cm]short on serotonin
[G]Because we're [Cm]short on serotonin
