Am C (½) Dsus2 (½) Am C (½) Dsus2 (½)
I hurt myself today to see if I still feel
Am C (½) Dsus2 (½) Am C (½) Dsus2 (½)
I focus on the pain the
only thing that's real
Am C (½) Dsus2 (½) Am C (½) Dsus2 (½)
The needle tears a hole the old familiar sting
Am C (½) Dsus2 (½) Am C (½) Dsus2 (½)
Try to kill it all away but I remember everything

What have I become? My sweetest friend

Everyone
I know goes away in the end

And
you could have it all My empire
of dirt
Am7 Fadd9 G
I
will let you down I will make
you hurt
