E minorEm                   C majorC
Bury me, just leave me to sleep in the dirt
E minorEm           C majorC
Finish me, I'm floating away

There's a demon staring straight through your eyes
E minorEm
A minorAm I wasting my time?
E minorEm        C majorC
Something's dying inside of me

Em*                C*
You make me feel like I'm fucking drowning (I need to cut you out, I need to cut you out)
Em*                 C*
You made my world come crashing down around me (I need to cut you out)

I've been crucified and hung out to dry
E minorEm               C majorC
Yet my heart still beats and I feel so alive
E minorEm                     C majorC
This time I'll fight for myself as you try to fuck me over
E minorEm           C majorC
I bet you never cared, I knew you never cared

Em*                C*
You make me feel like I'm fucking drowning (I need to cut you out, I need to cut you out)

Em*~
Lift my feet off the ground
C*~
Don't leave me here
