[Bm] [Am] [D]
My mask is [C] easily placed on a [G] betrayed and [F] broken face
[Bm] A disguise [Dm] to [Am] hide the past when you mapped out my [G] skin and made the [F] memories last
[Am] Some things are [C] never erased
And I [G] have run when [F] I've been chased
[Dm] By recollections of you [Em] and [Am] me falling off [G] our hopes
of a homemade [F] castle
[C]
When I'm walking [E] straight
[Am] I always end up in [F] a perfect [C] circle
Oh I try, but I just [E] can't wait
[Am] To break out of [F] this perfect circle
[G] Cause giving in to old [F] temptation
[Dm] Is like that common [G] twitch
Oh, the silly stupid [F] realization
The more you scratch, the more [C] you itch
[Cm]
[C] [Cm] [C]
[Am] Why am I fighting?
What's [C] it for?
[G] Must let my mask drop to [F] the floor
[Dm] My scars I [Am] shouldn't hide
From [G] the people who are on [F] my side
[Am] Rolling up my sleeves [C] to fight against
[G] All the things I've locked [F] up, all the things I've fenced
[Dm] But it's time to let [Am] it out
So we can build [G] a brand new [F] castle
[C] When I'm walking [E] straight
I [Am] always end up in [F] a perfect [C] circle
Oh I try, but I just [E] can't wait
To [Am] break out of [F] this perfect circle
[G] Cause giving in to old [F] temptation
[Dm] Is like that common [G] twitch
Oh, the silly stupid

The more you scratch, the more you [C] itch

[A] Cause giving in to old [G] temptation
[Em] Is like that common [A] twitch
Oh, the silly stupid [G] realization
The more you scratch, the more [D] you itch
