Tom: C
A G C F
Does it help if I say that I'm sorry?
Am C F
I know the burning in my blood has made you worry a lot
A D C F
Like the medicine they gave me that hurt me
G F
If you leave when I'm sleeping could you turn the lights off?
Am C Am F
My eyes ache if I wake up bathing in fluorescence
Am C F
It's hard to shake the phosphenes and iridescence
Am C F
When intravenous makes me feel heavy
Am Em C F
As frail as glass, and fading fast, I think that I'm ready to leave
[Chorus]
Am G F
So give me one good reason to believe I'm getting better
Am Em F
My weight keeps fluctuating and I struggle to remember
Am G F G Em
The last time I slept through a night without needing to shed my blood
F
I'm so sick of feeling alone
[Instrumental]
Am
[Verse 2]
A
But I can't stop thinking about
Am A
Every time that you'd leave me alone in the house
C
And I'd lay in my bed, suffocating with doubt
Over whether I'd manage to function without
F
Having you there to make sure I take what they gave me
Am
To kill off the pain that I'm going through daily
G F
In every way that I am strong, I am also weak
For all the words my lungs have birthed
Am
I struggle to speak
To you about anything
G A
That makes me feel like a burden
[Instrumental]
G F Am F A G F G Em G F
[Bridge]
Am A G F
Does it hurt you if I say I can feel the decay?
Dm Am C F
In a hospital bed I wither away
D A D C F
Behind the curtains I've been crying almost every night
G F
I don't want to ache like this for the rest of my life
[Chorus]
Am A G F
So give me one good reason to believe I'm getting better
Am Em F
My weight keeps fluctuating and I struggle to remember
Am G F G Em
The last time I slept through a night without needing to shed my blood
F
I'm so sick of feeling alone
