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

A# Dm C
[Chorus]
A#
I'm tongue tied inside
Dm C
With a little bit of lust mixed in to the mold
A# Dm C
Myself this solitude
A#
I live in
Dm C
Pretend like I'm never gonna need a friend again
A# Dm C
I'll keep myself intact
