Em9 D9 C9
I open my eyes, but I still manage to dream
Em9 D9 C9
This cold bathroom floor now just feels like home to me
Em9 D9 C9
I stumble to the mirror, and I naturally start to clean
Em9 D9
But my body's scorned with marks that say these aren't the last lines that
C9
I'll see
G5 G5/F#
So please cut this string attached to my wrists
Em7 C2 D
Buried in my shaking palm, I hold this evil in my fist
G5 G5/F#
I relive my pain with every scar
Em7 C2 D
It's a battlefield of memories that just won't go away for me

Em9 D9 C9
This world has tied me down, and the knot keeps tightening
Em9 D9 C9
'Cause I'm just a puppet, dangling from this breaking string
Em9 D9 C9
But maybe I'll turn this blade the other way
Em9 D9 C9
And roll up my sleeves to let the scars show my mistakes
G5 G5/F#
So please cut this string attached to my wrists

Em C9
It's a battlefield of memories that just won't go away for me
Em C9
You couldn't make the cut, so now you'll make this cut
Em C9
You couldn't make the cut, so now you'll make this cut
Em C9
You couldn't make the cut, so now you'll make this cut
Em C9
You couldn't make the cut, so now you'll make this cut
Em9 D11 C9
I can't breathe, I'm in need, where's my crimson savior?
Em9 D11 C9
No, I won't crawl back just to bleed, forgive me, I promise I'll stay clean
