Lyrics

(Ab)Cat

got my (Ab)tongue,

and I don’t (Ab)think I get a long with an y (Ab)one.

(Ab)Blood

run ning (Ab)cold,

I’m on the out side of the great est in side (Ab)joke.

And I (Ab)hate

all my (Ab)clothes.

Feels like my (Ab)skin does n’t fit right o ver my (Ab)bones.

So I (Ab)guess

I should (Ab)go.

The par ty’s (Ab)done and I’m no fun, I know, I (Ab)know, I know, I know.

I broke a glass, I tripped and fell, I told se crets I should n’t tell, I stum bled o ver all my words.

I made it weird, I made it (Ab)worse.

Each time I (C)step out side,

it’s so cial (C)su i cide.

It’s so cial su i cide.

Wan na curl up and die.

It’s so cial su i cide.

Ah,

ah,

ah.

I (Ab)laughed at the wrong time, sat with the wrong guy.

(Ab)Search ing how to start a con ver sa tion on a web site.

(Ab)Talked to this hot guy, swore I was his type.

(Ab)Guess that he was mak ing out with boys, like, the whole night.

Ev ’ry thing I do is trag ic.

Ev ’ry guy I like is gay.

The morn ing af ter I pan ic: “Oh God, what did I say?” Wan na curl up and die.

It’s so cial su i cide.

Yeah, when I’m a lone I’m fine, but don’t let me out at night.

It’s so cial su i cide.

It’s so cial su i cide.

Ah,

ah,

ah.

Ah,

I broke a glass, tripped and (C)fell, told se crets I should n’t tell,

stum bled o ver all my words.

Made it weird, I made it (Ab)worse.

Each day that (C)I’m a live,

it’s so cial (C)su i

cide.

It’s so cial su i cide.

Wan na curl up and die.

It’s so cial su i cide.

It’s so cial su i cide.

Don’t let me out at night.

I’m shocked I’m still a live.

It’s so cial su i (Ab)cide.

Thought your mom was your wife.

Called you the wrong name twice.

Can’t think of a third line: la la la la la la, la la la la la la, la la la la la la, la la la la la la.

Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?

Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.

Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
