Am C D Am C D Am
I hurt myself today to see if I still feel
C D Am C D Am
I focus on the pain the only thing that' s real
C D Am C D Am
The needle tears a hole the old familiar sting
C D Am C D G
Try to kill it all away but I remember everything
!--Chorus 1--
Am F C G
What have I become? My sweetest friend
Am F C G
Everyone I know goes away in the end
Am F G
And you could have it all My empire of dirt

I would keep myself I would find a way
