verse 1: Em C G B7 
So I got edges that scratch 
And sometimes I don't got a filter 
But I'm so tired of eating 
All of my misspoken words 
I know my disposition gets confusing 
My disproportionate reactions fuse with my eager state 
That's why you wanna come out and play with me,  
yeah 
 
Pre Chorus: C Em Em7 C C D G Am 
C Em Em7 
yeah 
C C D G Am 
Why?  
 
Chorus: Em C G B7 
Stooped down and out, you got me beggin for thread 
To sew this hole up that you ripped in my head 
Stupidly think you had it under control 
Strapped down to something that you don't understand 
Don't know what you were getting yourself into 
You should have known, secretly I think you knew 
(Secretly I think you knew) 
 
verse 2: (first 2 lines are silent) Em C G B7 
I got some dirt on my shoes 
My words can come out as a pistol 
I'm no good at aiming 
But I can aim it at you 
I know my actions, they may get confusing 
But my unstable ways is my solution 
To even space 
That's why you wanna come out and play with me, yeah 
 
Chorus: Em C G B7 
Stooped down and out, you got me beggin for thread 
To sew this hole up that you ripped in my head 
Stupidly think you had it under control 
Strapped down to something that you don't understand 
Don't know what you were getting yourself into 
You should have known, secretly I think you knew 
(Secretly I think you knew) 
 
Bridge: C G D C 
Hold it out, whoa 
Try to hide it out, but my tracks are better 
Hold it out, whoa 
Try to hide it out, but my tracks are better 
 
Chorus: Em C G B7 
Stooped down and out, you got me beggin for thread 
To sew this hole up that you ripped in my head 
Stupidly think you had it under control 
Strapped down to something that you don't understand 
Don't know what you were getting yourself into 
You should have known, secretly I think you knew 
(Secretly I think you knew)
