CTonight I'm posed and popping like a peaFcock
I'm pressing flDmesh, I'm smiling big, my spinning hGead sings "Stop, just stop"
Cause what usFed to calm me doGwn
Just rips my lEife to ribbons nAmow
So I keep smiFling, I find my wiGndow and quick cut oCut
TheCse days my hangman's hunger makes my gut Fkick
My sleeping mDmind, could map it blind
G
A flask, A key, A bag, A fifth
I try to Fwill myself awayG
While shoutingE habits plead their casAme
So when the Fsun sears through my eGyes
My beggar's bErain can't comproAmmise
I splash cold Fwater, I draw the Gcurtains, I stay insCide
C7 E7 Am G F(riff)Dm
And I can't say that it's a sickness, more like a stranger I ask in
And later rC7ealize, was a sE7trangler
Am G F(riff)Dm
Slipping nooses in my den
But I was Flonely so I Gasked him, "*Could*E you tie that onAme on me?"
It wasn't Fhis fault, I was Geager, and I was Cweak
So as I C7inch towards resolE7ution
Am G F(riff)Dm
Yea I'm not sure which life feels right
A narrow C7noose or the wading E7water
Am G F(riff)Dm
The hanging head, sore open eyes
my brother Fmichael he went Gone way
And at the Efork I heard him sAmay
"Don'tF you follow, donG't go making mCy mistakes"
And I Frealized what he meGant
Don't kill youErself to raise the dAmead
It never Fworks you'll onlyG end up joining Cthem
end on C
