Verse
D
I'm hollowed out where a bright crux used to be
F#m
I'm shredding my skin like you wouldn't believe
D
I couldn't help myself, I just needed to grieve
F#m
While I lived vacant in a memory
D
(Backtrack)
D
Never thought I'd ever be back
F#m
(Think fast)
F#m
Never thought I'd ever be last
D F#m
I'm selfish with time, it's my only worth
D
(Step back)
D
'Cause I'm feeling really outmatched
F#m
(Forced in)
F#m
While I'm dealing with the contrast
D F#m
You're far from me, that's hard for me, tread carefully
[Chorus]
D
I'm tongue tied inside
F#m E
With a little bit of lust mixed in to the mold
D F#m E
Myself this solitude
D
I live in
F#m E
Pretend like I'm never gonna need a friend again
D F#m E
I'll keep myself intact
[Verse 2]
D F#m
Drift away to a place that's not so harrowing
D
To the back plate of my mind, digging up what's left to find

With the bar set way too high for me, I'm bound to sink uncomfortably
[Chorus]
D
I'm tongue tied inside
F#m E
With a little bit of lust mixed in to the mold
D F#m E
Myself this solitude
D
I live in
F#m E
Pretend like I'm never gonna need a friend again
D F#m E
I'll keep myself intact
[Breakdown]

[Chorus]
