Verse
A# G# C# F#
Does it help if I say that I'm sorry?
A#m 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?
A#m C# A#m F#
My eyes ache if I wake up bathing in fluorescence
A#m C# F#
It's hard to shake the phosphenes and iridescence
A#m C# F#
When intravenous makes me feel heavy
A#m Fm C# F#
As frail as glass, and fading fast, I think that I'm ready to leave
[Chorus]
A#m G# F#
So give me one good reason to believe I'm getting better
A#m Fm F#
My weight keeps fluctuating and I struggle to remember
A#m G# F# G# Fm
The last time I slept through a night without needing to shed my blood
F#
I'm so sick of feeling alone
[Instrumental]
A#m
[Verse 2]
A#
But I can't stop thinking about
A#m 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
A#m
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
A#m
I struggle to speak
To you about anything
G# A#
That makes me feel like a burden
[Instrumental]
G# F# A#m F# A# G# F# G# Fm G# F#
[Bridge]
A#m A# G# F#
Does it hurt you if I say I can feel the decay?
D#m A#m 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]
A#m A# G# F#
So give me one good reason to believe I'm getting better
A#m Fm F#
My weight keeps fluctuating and I struggle to remember
A#m G# F# G# Fm
The last time I slept through a night without needing to shed my blood
F#
I'm so sick of feeling alone
[Outro]
