   Gm                          A#
I cannot believe what you get away with
          Gm              A#
You find beauty in anything
    Gm                        A#
Whenever you look down into a sewer
F
You see a diamond ring

It isn't fair how you never look like you're trying
As if you couldn't care any less
And I'm here, kicking myself to keep from crying
You say you're impressed

Chorus:
                D#        A#
But this isn't helping at all
                  D#               A#
It only makes me wanna get further off
            D#        A#
This isn't helping at all
            F
This isn't helping

You say that this doesn't have to hurt
You're there if you need to be found
Can't you see that that makes it so much worse?
I'll always see you around

Maybe, in time, we can give it one more try
But let's think about what matters now
Keep kickin' yourself to keep from crying
That, you're so right about

Chorus:
'Cause this isn't helping at all
I know you think it's kindness, but it's not
This isn't helping at all
This isn't helping

               Cm                 Gm
Don't say that it's all your fault
               Cm                    Gm
I know you're banking on it coming up
                Cm            Gm
But would your life be so bad
            F
If you knew every single thought I had?
               Cm                Gm
'Cause I only have two things to say to you
        Cm                   Gm
But you say two things about everything, babe
Cm                  Gm
Well, just when I thought
                F
You don't even notice me at all

Chorus:
'Cause this isn't helping at all
It only makes me wanna get further off
This isn't helping at all
This isn't helping
This isn't helping at all
I know you think it's kindness, but it's not
This isn't helping at all
This isn't helping
