Verse 1

Am                         C
Slide the blade across my skin,
                          G
Take a breath and stab it in,
                        Em
Pull it back and throw away,
Am                            C
My life, my dreams my pain, failing,
                           E
Remembering how it used to be,
                          F (bar chord)
This was my life that was me,


Chorus X2 (all bar chords)

B                       C#    D
My life has ended im in my place,
G                         C#   D  
My body on earth, my life no trace,
B                        C#    D
It’s all so wrong I lost my heart,
G                          C#   D        A   G#   G    F#    F 
My pain and feelings all torn apart


Verse 2

Am                        C
Remove my body’s life support,
                          G
Forget the words I was taught,
                         Em
My name forgotten, all alone,
Am                         C
Looking down on what I changed,
                             E
The hate I had, the love exchanged,
                          F (bar chord)
I don’t exist, my body weeps,

Chorus X2
Solo Am, C, G, Em 2 quick strums per chord

Chorus

Verse 3

Am                                C
Never thought it would end like this,
                             G
I just died im starting to miss,
                               Em
The things that I could never get,
Am                              C
I failed my journey through my life,
                        G
Maybe now ill make it right,
                         Em 
Maybe I should die or shouldn’t,
Am                       C  
Maybe I lived, maybe I didn’t,
                          E 
No use now it’s far too late,
                              F (bar chord)
I was loved but drowned with hate,
