[Am] [C] [D]
[Am] [C] [D]
[Am] [C] I hurt [D] myself [Am] today to [C] see [D] if I still [Am] feel.
[C] I focus [D] on [Am] the pain, [C] the only [D] thing [Am] that's real.
The [C] needle [D] tears [Am] the hole, [C] the old [D] familiar [Am] sting.
[C] Try to kill it [D] all [Am] away, but [C] I remember [D]
[G] everything.
What [Am] have I [F] become?
[C] My [G] sweetest friend, [Am] everyone [F] I know goes [C] away in [G] the end.
[Am] And you could have it [F] all, [G] my empire of dirt.
[Am] I will let [F] you down, [G] I will make [Am] you hurt.
[C] [D]
[Am] [C] [D]
[Am] [C] I wear [D] this crown [Am] of thorns [C] upon [D] my [Am] liar's chair.
[C] Full [D] of broken [Am] thoughts [C] I [D] cannot
[Am] repair.
[C] Beneath [D] the stains [Am] of time, [C] the [D] feelings [Am] disappear.
[C] You [D] are someone [Am] else, [C] I [D] am still [G] right here.
[Am] What have I [F] become?
[C] My [G] sweetest friend, [Am] everyone [F] I know goes [C] away in [G] the end.
[Am] And you could have [F] it all, [G] my empire of dirt.
[Am] I will let [F] you down, [G] I will make you hurt.
[Am] If I could start [F] again [G] a million miles away, [Am] I would keep [F] myself, [G] I would find a way.
