                  D#      Fm    G#
So tell me how to make it better
                Cm        Gm    G#
Or go ahead and turn your back again
       A#          D#     Fm    G#
I wear you like a scarlet letter
                Cm     Gm      G# A#
I know you feel safe under my skin

D#  Fm   G#     Cm
All this wasted time
Gm    G#     A# D#
Let's face it   I'm
Fm  G#
not thinking straight
    Cm Gm
But I  gotta keep
  G#       A#
myself together

Chorus:
G#    A#
I wish  that I could say
D#                 A#
the right things a better way

hurry up and wait for me

So is this really what you wanted?
I should've seen the writing on the wall
I took a lot of things for granted
But I never took you for a wrecking ball

Crashing down on all my plans now
I'm not thinking straight
But I gotta keep myself together

Chorus

So tell me how to make it better

So tell me how to make it better

Chorus

Gotta keep myself together
I'm screaming "hurry up and wait for me"
