[Verse]
Bm G
She says she wants to end it all when she's all alone in her room
D
She cries
D A
The way she feels inside is too much for her
Bm
When all you got is these four walls
G D
It's not that hard to feel so small
A
Or even exist at all
G A
How come no one heard her when she said
[Chorus]
Bm
Maybe I'm better off dead
G
If I was would it finally be enough
D A
To shut out all those voices in my head?
Bm
Maybe I'm better off dead
G
Better off dead!
D
Did you hear a word
A Bm
Hear a word I said?
G A
This is not where I belong
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
[Verse]
Bm G
Gone, gone
D A
This is not where I belong
Bm
You gonna miss me when I'm gone
Bm
She doesn't know she's beautiful
G D
Because no one's ever told her so
A
And the demons that she has is all she knows
Bm G D
And maybe she can fall in love with someone in her life that she could trust
A
And tell her she's enough (Have someone tell her she's enough?)
G A
How come no one heard her when she said
[Chorus]

Maybe I'm better off dead

If I was would it finally be enough

Better off dead!

Did you hear a word

Hear a word I said?

This is not where I belong

This is not where I belong

You gonna miss me when I'm gone

All she wanted was to be enough
D
All she wanted was to be enough
A
So what does it take?
(A)
Maybe it's not too late

Yeah no one heard her when she said
[Chorus]
