Verse 1:
C                          Dm
 I am crying on the floor, rocking back and forth
    F                       G
And Rob is crying too, just like the night before
    C                Dm
And Verity is holding  me so tightly
        F                              G
Saying "You cannot give up" and she is crying slightly
        C            Dm
And Russ walks over, crying as well
          F                            G
‘Cause he heard me shouting how much I hate myself
         C            Dm
He said “No, not you! No, not you!
            F                 G
You make us all so happy. You know that, don’t you?”
 
Chorus:
C                  Dm
 I’m so emotional, I felt unlovable
    F                        G
But they love me so dearly I must just be wrong
            C        Dm
‘Cause they keep me, keep me safe
Am            G
Keep me safe, keep me safe
      C        F
K-k-k-keep me, keep me safe
Am

Verse 2:
           C                                  Dm
Still feel ripples from stones thrown, didn’t just disturb the surface
    F                        G
Now everyone around me shows me I have a purpose
   C                       Dm
Of love and be loved, show others they ain’t worthless
  F                  G
I can love myself, I just need to learn it
     C                  Dm
I continue to unpick my tragic disposition
      F                          G
Can I be authentically happy, no need for these incisions?
   C                            Dm
No need for a lobotomy when the brain’s just working
     F                                G
I am hurting, I am hurting, could you be my Ibuprofen?
