Verse
F D# G# C#
Does it help if I say that I'm sorry?
Fm G# C#
I know the burning in my blood has made you worry a lot
F A# G# C#
Like the medicine they gave me that hurt me
D# C#
If you leave when I'm sleeping could you turn the lights off?
Fm G# Fm C#
My eyes ache if I wake up bathing in fluorescence
Fm G# C#
It's hard to shake the phosphenes and iridescence
Fm G# C#
When intravenous makes me feel heavy
Fm Cm G# C#
As frail as glass, and fading fast, I think that I'm ready to leave
[Chorus]
Fm D# C#
So give me one good reason to believe I'm getting better
Fm Cm C#
My weight keeps fluctuating and I struggle to remember
Fm D# C# D# Cm
The last time I slept through a night without needing to shed my blood
C#
I'm so sick of feeling alone
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
F
But I can't stop thinking about
Fm F
Every time that you'd leave me alone in the house
G#
And I'd lay in my bed, suffocating with doubt
Over whether I'd manage to function without
C#
Having you there to make sure I take what they gave me
Fm
To kill off the pain that I'm going through daily
D# C#
In every way that I am strong, I am also weak
For all the words my lungs have birthed
Fm
I struggle to speak
To you about anything
D# F
That makes me feel like a burden
[Instrumental]

Fm F D# C#
Does it hurt you if I say I can feel the decay?
A#m Fm G# C#
In a hospital bed I wither away
A# F A# G# C#
Behind the curtains I've been crying almost every night
D# C#
I don't want to ache like this for the rest of my life
[Chorus]
Fm F D# C#
So give me one good reason to believe I'm getting better
Fm Cm C#
My weight keeps fluctuating and I struggle to remember
Fm D# C# D# Cm
The last time I slept through a night without needing to shed my blood
C#
I'm so sick of feeling alone
