I hurt myself today
to see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
but I remember everything
 
[Chorus]
 
    G   Am7 Fadd9/A C/E

What have I become,
my sweetest friend?
Everyone I know
goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
 
[Verse 2]
 
     Am        C           D

I wear this crown of thorns
upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
the feeling disappears
You are someone else
I am still right here
 
[Chorus]
 
    G   Am7 Fadd9/A C/E

What have I become,
my sweetest friend?
Everyone I know
goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

If I could start again
a million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
