  F#
I cannot wait, or stick around
I'm giving up, I'm face down
It's not me, it's not you but
I'm still in this room

Chorus:
 B        F#
Hey, you choose it
 B         F#
Hey, you abused it yeah

It's not me, it's not you, wipe the tears aside
And you cry and scream in the middle of the night
Wrapped in a blanket
But you told the lies

Chorus:
Hey, you choose it
Hey, abused it
Hey, refused it
Hey, you lose it

Why can't I sleep
Why can't I sleep
Why can't I sleep
Why can't I sleep
Why can't I sleep
It's not me
