Verse
C
I'm hollowed out where a bright crux used to be
Em
I'm shredding my skin like you wouldn't believe
C
I couldn't help myself, I just needed to grieve
Em
While I lived vacant in a memory
C
(Backtrack)
C
Never thought I'd ever be back
Em
(Think fast)
Em
Never thought I'd ever be last
C Em
I'm selfish with time, it's my only worth
C
(Step back)

'Cause I'm feeling really outmatched
Em
(Forced in)

While I'm dealing with the contrast
C Em
You're far from me, that's hard for me, tread carefully
[Chorus]
C
I'm tongue tied inside
Em D
With a little bit of lust mixed in to the mold
C Em D
Myself this solitude

I live in
Em D
Pretend like I'm never gonna need a friend again

I'll keep myself intact
[Verse 2]
C Em
Drift away to a place that's not so harrowing
C
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]
C
I'm tongue tied inside
Em D
With a little bit of lust mixed in to the mold
C Em D
Myself this solitude
C
I live in
Em D
Pretend like I'm never gonna need a friend again
C Em D
I'll keep myself intact
[Breakdown]
