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

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
