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