Verse
G# F# B E
Does it help if I say that I'm sorry?
G#m B E
I know the burning in my blood has made you worry a lot
G# C# B E
Like the medicine they gave me that hurt me
F# E
If you leave when I'm sleeping could you turn the lights off?
G#m B G#m E
My eyes ache if I wake up bathing in fluorescence
G#m B E
It's hard to shake the phosphenes and iridescence
G#m B E
When intravenous makes me feel heavy
G#m D#m B E
As frail as glass, and fading fast, I think that I'm ready to leave
[Chorus]
G#m F# E
So give me one good reason to believe I'm getting better
G#m D#m E
My weight keeps fluctuating and I struggle to remember
G#m F# E F# D#m
The last time I slept through a night without needing to shed my blood
E
I'm so sick of feeling alone
[Instrumental]
G#m
[Verse 2]
G#
But I can't stop thinking about
G#m G#
Every time that you'd leave me alone in the house
B
And I'd lay in my bed, suffocating with doubt
Over whether I'd manage to function without
E
Having you there to make sure I take what they gave me
G#m
To kill off the pain that I'm going through daily
F# E
In every way that I am strong, I am also weak
For all the words my lungs have birthed
G#m
I struggle to speak
To you about anything
F# G#
That makes me feel like a burden
[Instrumental]
F# E G#m E G# F# E F# D#m F# E
[Bridge]
G#m G# F# E
Does it hurt you if I say I can feel the decay?
C#m G#m B E
In a hospital bed I wither away
C# G# C# B E
Behind the curtains I've been crying almost every night
F# E
I don't want to ache like this for the rest of my life
[Chorus]
G#m G# F# E
So give me one good reason to believe I'm getting better
G#m D#m E
My weight keeps fluctuating and I struggle to remember
G#m F# E F# D#m
The last time I slept through a night without needing to shed my blood
E
I'm so sick of feeling alone
[Outro]
