Hey, this is me trying to simplify the song and play it on acoustic. I hope it helps! The X's mean just a scratch stroke. The pattern you follow is marked out by the words the X's are over. [Verse] Dear Mr. Gepetto: I hope this finds you well I wrote this letter 'cause we miss you here in hell And now I know it's hard when you don't know what to think And every single smile is a thorn when you're waking up You might try but you won't get by until you're crucified for all the things you try to do Well I don't care if you sink or swim And I don't care how you hold it in As long as you don't bother me with all the things I don't bother you with And 9 times out of 10 you might be right But what about that time you know you're wrong? Keep singing that same song And everybody smiles but they'll never get along XX XX X X X X X I'm trying and I'm trying and I'm trying to let go: But everybody's going down tonight [Chorus] We are the few that won't say nothing right We are the footsteps fading into the night Nobody cares and nobody stares with such conviction and I say: I never wanted this, no one ever wanted this But they gave it to me so I might as well be proud of it And I don't know where we went wrong All i know now is i got to do something right [Instrumental] (x3) [Verse] So come clean No one should have have to live with the things you've seen But you're living anyway Well I stop the car and put her in park And I step outside (god I hate this part) When I see what I saw what I thought was a lie; it was more Than a chore I'm just doing what I need to get I don't care if you leave or stay But we might as well split Because it's not the same as it was When we said our last goodbye And if you want the truth: I was hoping one of us would Pass away because it'd be much easier then We could all get together and think about when We were young we were dumb we were numb but in love And I'm done so I'm sending out this letter today XX XX XX X X X I'm trying and I'm trying and I'm trying to let go: But everybody's going down tonight [Chorus] We are the few that won't say nothing right We are the footsteps fading into the night Nobody cares and nobody stares with such conviction and I say: I never wanted this, no one ever wanted this But they gave it to me so I might as well be proud of it And I don't know where we went wrong All i know now is i got to do something right [Instrumental] x4 [Verse] This has been the best night of my life ___X2___ I could've lost my life And I would've lost my mind But now I'm fine and I find That this has been the best night of my- C G _ This has been the best night of my- | I still can't believe they had the heart to apologize _| I could've lost my life And I would've lost my mind But now I'm fine and I find That this has been the best night of my life [Bridge] And as the day fades no one investigates Nobody answers when she calls his name Another victim, somewhere in a shallow grave I want to hold her and tell her: it's not your fault [Interlude] Na na na... [Bridge] And as the day fades no one investigates Nobody answers when she calls his name Another victim, somewhere in a shallow grave I want to hold her and tell her: it's not your fault [Post Chorus] Na na na... It's not your fault (x2) [Chorus] We are the few that won't say nothing right We are the footsteps fading into the night Nobody cares and nobody stares with such conviction and I say: I never wanted this, no one ever wanted this But they gave it to me so I might as well be proud of it And I don't know where we went wrong All i know now is i got to do something right [Interlude] (x4) [Chorus] We are the few that won't say nothing right We are the footsteps fading into the night Nobody cares and nobody stares with such conviction and I say: I never wanted this, no one ever wanted this But they gave it to me so I might as well be proud of it And I don't know where we went wrong All i know now is i got to do something right

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque des sentiments de désespoir et de désillusion, en parlant d'un monde où les gens se battent avec leurs pensées et leurs émotions. L'artiste adresse une lettre à une figure symbolique, exprimant à quel point la souffrance et la confusion peuvent peser lourdement sur l'esprit. Malgré les sourires en surface, il y a une lutte interne qui laisse chacun isolé. Chaque tentative de connexion est marquée par un sentiment d'échec, et l'idée que même si l'on souhaite s'élever, il y a une part de fatalisme dans cette lutte pour trouver un sens ou un but. Le contexte de cette chanson semble toucher à des thèmes universels tels que la recherche d'identité, la lutte contre les démons intérieurs et l'importance des relations humaines. À travers des métaphores puissantes, on ressent l'envie de se libérer des fardeaux du passé, tout en faisant face à la réalité brutale de la vie.
