B              A#   A
I'm so insecure I think
That I'll die before I  drink
And I'm so caught up in the news
Of who likes me and who hates you

    A
And I'm so tired that I might
Quit my job, start a new life
     G#
And they'd all be so disappointed
      G          F#
Cuz who am I, if not exploited?

And I'm so sick of seventeen
Where's my fucking teenage dream?
If someone tells me one more time
"Enjoy your youth," I'm gonna cry

And I don't stick up for myself
I'm anxious, and nothing can help
And I wish I'd done this before
And I wish people liked me more

Chorus:
E
All I did was try my best
This the kinda thanks I get?
B                                  A#
Unrelentlessly upset  (huh, huh, huh)
(huh, huh, huh)
      A
They say "These are the golden years"
    E
But I wish I could disappear
B
Ego crush is so severe
God, it's brutal out here

I feel like no one wants me
And I hate the way I'm perceived
I only have two real friends
And lately, I'm a nervous wreck

'Cause I love people I don't like
And I hate every song I write
And I'm not cool, and I'm not smart
And I can't even parallel park

Chorus

 E           G            B   B7
Got a broken ego, broken heart
(God, it's brutal out here,
And hey, it's brutal out here)
     E             G
And God, I don't even know where to start
