Intro:
Am   E   E   Am
Dm C E Am C E Am

Verse 1:
 Am
I swear my eyes are rotting out the back of my head
E
Jaw's locked open, I'm chained to a mattress
 E                        Am   Dm
Anxiety is tearin' at the flesh around my quivering limbs
Am
Finger on the trigger and a bullet in the gun
  E
To contemplate the exit's only half of the fun
E

I'm fucking sick of this body
E              Am  Dm
Lets burn it and start over new

Interlude:
Am   E   E   Am
Dm C E Am C E Am

Verse 2:
    Am
I'm the deafening silence
Am
That trails the bad news
   E
I'm a drunk and a fuck up with nothing to lose
   E
I'm a skeleton covered in scar covered skin
    Am   Dm
In your closet
    Am
Like a car crash that steals all the ones that you love
   E
Or a missile thats whistling lullabies from up above
E
I've been staring at the television
E              Am
Trying to envision what your head would look like on a stake

Chorus:
        C     E
We're all just screaming along
    Am      F
To this broken record still
C        E      Am
And i just can't take this anymore
   C      E     Am      F
When every days a photocopy of the day before
        C         E        Am   Dm
One day you'll die and all you'll leave behinds a corpse

Verse 3:
  Am
My lungs are collapsing anxieties cracking
  E
My heart into shards that will lodge in my chest
E
Breathing but barely I'm fighting I'm gasping
  Am
For air now I'm not sure theres any hope left

Chorus:
        C     E
We're all just screaming along
    Am      F
To this broken record still
C        E      Am
And i just can't take this anymore
   C      E     Am      F
When every days a photocopy of the day before
        C         E        Am
One day you'll die and all you'll leave behinds a corpse

Interlude:
Am    Dm   F E Eb D
Am    Dm   F E Eb D

Verse 4:
Am                    E
Soon the earth the sun and the dark rift will all align
  E                Am
To bring the oceans crashing on to land with rising tide
       Am             E
When there's plague and famine ravaging across the war torn land
E                       Am
Are you still so high and mighty when there's nothing in your hands?

Dm     C        E      Am
Soon these scars will fade like all the rest
Dm     C        E      Am
I need your bullshit like a bullet in my chest
     Dm       C       E      Am
All your problems are so trivial of yourself are so full
     Dm
When the end is growing near
       C
And we're all trading off our souls
    E               Am
If you cower on your knees I'll put a bullet in your skull

Chorus:
        C     E
We're all just screaming along
    Am      F
To this broken record still
C        E      Am
And i just can't take this anymore
   C      E     Am      F
When every days a photocopy of the day before
        C         E        Am
One day you'll die and all you'll leave behinds a corpse

Outro:
Am   E   E   Am
