[Verse 1]
Am F
I keep on having this dream where I'm seventeen
C G
Slipping through the cafeteria trying not to be seen
Am F
I see my brother, he's sitting there with some kids
C G
He smiles at me and waves, I fake a smile and sit
Am F
Down at the table, but something's off and I know it
C G
'Cause when I try and say something nobody seems to take notice
Am F
I kinda like it, but then I start to feel strange
C G
Like the time I went on Amazon to buy myself a date
[Pre-Chorus]
Am F
When did things get pixelated?
C G
I can't keep my concentration
Am F
I've lost my imagination
C G
To such great expectations
[Chorus]
Am F
All the things that I never said
C G
They keep crawling back to me
Am F
All the things that I never did
C G
They still haunt me in my dreams
Am
All the years I've spent
F
All the lives I've faked
C G
Just to keep myself protected
Am F C G
From all the things that I never said (that I never said, that I never said)
[Verse 2]
Am F
I keep a rolodex inside of my head of
C G
All the times I had a chance to just be honest, instead
Am F
I made a joke to changed the subject because my confidence said
C
"Hey, listen, if you mess this up,
They're gonna judge you, my friend!"
Am F
I'm living in a state of pure paralysis, see
C G
I like to think, think, think, but my action is weak
Am F
My interaction is bleak, if life's a herd, I'm a sheep
C G
Guess I'm not really that much different than at age seventeen
