D A Bm And so she gives him what he wants as long as he can make her feel ok, but A she's not ok G D And we avoid the topics, we make the kids have secrets Bm A When they are exposed and everyone else knows G D We'll say we never knew it, that they had a problem Bm D 'Cause if we would have known, we surely would have solved it Bm D A Bm D A But we can't, it's too late, I said we can't it's too late D A He's skipping classes 'cause he hates them, hopes he passes, not to take Bm A them all again, I heard him say... D A He escapes them with the pills, the ones he takes to make him feel like he's Bm A ok, but he's not ok G D And we avoid the topics, we make the kids have secrets Bm A When they are exposed and everyone else knows G D We'll say we never knew it, that they had a problem Bm D 'Cause if we would have known, we surely would have solved it Bm D A Bm D A But we can't, it's too late, I said we can't it's too late Em D Bm A God you've gotta save us, we hide behind the faces that we make to disguise Em D Bm The things that were ashamed of and all the ugly things that make us close A our eyes D Bm A D Bm A They make us close our eyes, why do we close our eyes? G D And we avoid the topics, we make the kids have secrets Bm A When they are exposed and everyone else knows G D We'll say we never knew it, that they had a problem Bm D 'Cause if we would have known, we surely would have solved it Bm D A Bm D A But we can't, it's too late, I said we can't it's too late
