D#                    G#m
I know I hurt you, I was so unkind
D#                    G#m
I was ungrateful, Iwasted your time
      Cm            A#
But I was young and lost, so lost
      D#                          G#m
See, you took this poor boy and changed his whole life
  D#                     G#m
Granted his wishes and dreams overnight
       Cm               A#
And I saw stars, they shot me down
        G#                         G#m
But I deserved it, they knocked me out

Chorus:
     D#               A#                             Cm
I'm just waking up now, in the tears of the one's I love
                          G#m
It's quiet, I'll bet that everybody thinks I'm done
D#                  A#                             Cm
I need to get up now, I've been down here for too long
                              G#m
Two years I've been lost, now I remember who I was
D#       G#m  D#   G#m
Who I was, who I was

I am the one who beat me black and blue
No one can hurt all your feelings like you
Whoa, I know it, or validate
See, if you're a misfit and feel out of place
Or you don't like how you look, it's okay
'Cause someone will, but you need to love yourself
Don't end up like me, don't end up like me

Chorus:
I'm just waking up now, in the tears of the one's I love
It's quiet, I'll bet that everybody thinks I'm done
I need to get up now, I've been down here for too long
Two years I've been lost, now I remember who I was
Who I was, who I was (I've been down here for too...)
Who I was, who I was
