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