Intro G Verse 1 G Hey It's been a while since you saw my face G7 I haven't been doing so great So I took a little break C A lot of people are saying some things about me that aren't quite true D7 Doesn't matter if it's true, though G Just as long as it's entertaining to you, right? You guys having fun? Chorus G G7 All aboard the toxic gossip train C D7 It's chugging down the tracks of misinformation G G7 The toxic gossip train C D7 You got a oneway ticket to manipulation station G G7 Toxic gossip train C Cm Tie me to the tracks and harass me for my past G E7 Those rumors look like facts if you don't mind the gaps C D7 I won't survive in the crash, but hey G At least you're havin' fun Verse 2-1 G Uh, hi, everyone I've been wanting to come online and talk to you about a few things Um, even though my team has strongly advised me to not say what I want to say I recently realized that they never said that I couldn't sing what I wanna say, so Here I am, and, um, today I only wanna talk about the facts So, I hope that you'll be willing to listen Here we go Verse 2-2 G Many years ago, I used to message my fans Uh, but not in a creepy way like a lot of you are trying to suggest It was more of a loser kind of way Where I was just trying to be besties with everybody It was kinda like, uh, when you go to like a family gathering, you know? And there's a weird aunt there who keeps coming up to you and going like "Hey, girl, what's the tea?" And you're like "Eh" Um, that was me, but in group chats with my fans, it was weird Pre-Chorus G I've been sharing my life online for over 15 years G7 I've poured my heart out to you and because of that I feel C Like I'm talking to my friends, but, in the beginning of my career D7 I didn't really understand that maybe there should be some boundaries there C G There were times in the DMs when I would overshare D7 G Details of my life, which was really weird of me C G I haven't done that for years, you see Dm7 G Because I changed my behavior, and I took accountability But that's not very interesting, is it? G G7 So let's go on the toxic gossp train Chorus C D The locomotive's fueled with hateful accusations G G7 The toxic gossip train C D7 Steamroll over someone's reputation G G7 Toxic gossip train C Cm Hop on board, but close your eyes, otherwise you'll realize G E7 That the train is made of lies and that person you despise C Maybe didn't deserve to die D7 G But hey, at least you're havin' fun Verse 3-1 G In all seriousness, I do think it's really important to hold people accountable for their mistakes Um, y'know, we should hope that everyone can learn from their mistakes And grow, and change their behavior, and be a better person This is something that I've always tried to do when I make mistakes And is something that I will continue to try t... what? Oh, you don't care? Oh, okay Verse 3-2 G I thought you wanted me to take accountability G7 But that's not the point of your mob mentality, is it? No C Your goal is to ruin the life of the person you despise D7 G While you dramatize your lies and monetize their demise Interlude Yeah, um, I feel like I can already hear the comments on this video C "She's gaslighting, manipulating!" G "Ugh, she's a narcissist and a rat!" D7 "I would never make a mistake like that." Verse 4-1 G Oh, I'm sorry I didn't realize That all of you are perfect, so please, criticize me C Bring out the daggers made from your perfect past D7 And stab me repeatedly in my bony little back Verse 4-2 C G D7 G I'm sure you're disappointed in my shitty little song C G D7 G I know you wanted me to say that I was one hundred per cent in the wrong C G Well, I'm sorry, I'm not gonna take that route D7 G Of admitting to lies and rumors that you made up for clout Bridge G "Hey everybody, I found someone new to harass G7 She did some things that I do not like, in her past C D7 So everybody, gather 'round, 'cause we're about to attack" But not based on facts, oh no C Cm Your loaded lethal weapon is your fingers on the keys G E7 You don't need any armor when you can hide behind a screen C D7 So, shoot me down, quick, with a click, and bam G My reputation's deceased Verse 5-1 G Uh, I also wanted to take a minute to talk about that girl, Miranda Sings G7 You know the one, yeah her C Uh, she's PG-13, it says that on my website And it's always been that way D7 And that's why you won't find my videos on the YouTube Kids app C G Anyway, um, I didn't realize it was my responsibility D7 G To decide what was appropriate for every kid to see C G I've always relied on parents to decide if they're comfortable D7 G With their families watching my YouTube videos or coming to my live shows Verse 5-2 G Now, have I made some jokes in poor taste? Yes G7 Have I made lots of dumb mistakes? Yes C Am I sad that there's some fans that feel betrayed? Yes D7 But was my intention to manipulate? No Verse 6-1 G It doesn't really matter what my intention was 'Cause it seems as though everyone's already decided on that Let me tell you, it's not very fun to have millions of people all over the world Call you the most vile, horrendous, disgusting, life-ruining words That a person can be called, in my opinion Um, it doesn't matter that these things aren't true G Uh, everyone just believes that you are the type of person who manipulates and abuses children Interlude So, I just wanted to say that, um Verse 6-2 G G7 The only thing that I've ever groomed is my two Persian cats C Cm I'm not a groomer, I'm just a loser G G7 Who didn't understand I shouldn't respond to fans C Cm And I'm not a predator even though a lot of you think so G D7 Because 5 years ago, I made a fart joke Pre-Chorus G C G Ah, so, even though I know this video won't change anyone's mind about me D7 I still felt it was important to come on here and defend myself a little G And take accountability And I also wanted to say that C G To anyone out there who has ever supported me in any capacity D7 I really, really appreciate you, thank you For what it's worth, I never had any bad intentions But I do feel like shit Chorus G G7 The toxic gossip train C D7 Chugging down the tracks of misinformation G G7 Toxic gossip train C D7 You got a one way ticket to manipulation station G G7 Toxic gossip train C Cm You tied me to the tracks and harassed me for my past G E7 Rumors look like facts when you don't mind the gaps C D7 I won't survive in the crash, but hey Hope you had some fun Interlude G Actually, y'know, I feel like maybe I should let you guys know something, um Seems like, maybe you're confused about something? I don't know Let me try to help, um Outro 1 G Sometimes people make a mistake and it doesn't make them a horrible person, whoa C D7 Sometimes people can make a mistake and they're still a good person Crazy, I know, ha G G7 Sometimes people can make a mistake and you don't have to take that mistake, oh no C And twist it up, and grind it, and add some lies to it, and pulverize it And stab it with knives, and ruin a life, and, oh no G G7 Sometimes people can make a mistake, it doesn't mean you gotta send them hate, oh no C D7 Sometimes people can make a mistake and you can kindly let them know, and help them to grow Outro 2 C G G E7 Sometimes people make mistakes, simply because they made a mistake? C D7 And mistake doesn't make them a terrible human G It just makes them a human But what do I know? Fuck me, right?
