-Verse-
Am D? Am D?
Wish I was too dead to cry
G6 Am
My self-affliction fades
Am D? Am D?
Stones to throw at my creator
G6 Am7 D?
Masochists to which I cater
-Chorus-
Am D?
You don't need to bother;
Am E
I don't need to be
Am D?
I'll keep slipping farther
Fmaj7
But once I hold on,
D? Am
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
[play the intro again]
Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest
-Bridge-
Am
I wish I had a reason;
E
my flaws are open season
G6
For this, I gave up trying
Am7 D?
One good turn deserves my dying
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten
with its memories
Diaries left
with cryptic entries
And you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on:
I'll never live down my deceit
