I can see that you're hurting beneath your new red dress.
Fmaj7 Am
Beneath your sharp new shoes and you new tattos,
Fmaj7 C
You are directionless.

And I know you've been working as hard as you can

And I understand.

With your tongue-tied tragedy and too small T-shirts,
Fadd9 Am7 Gadd11
Glorious you.
