verse 1
C
I made it out of the maze
C
cleared the smoke and the mirrors away
C Dm
All that remains is the honest truth
Dm
but it's the same mistake
Dm
I made last week
C
I fell back in that trap
C
Every breath I breathe
C
barely makes it past my teeth
Dm
'cause these same vises occupy my mind
Dm
I opened up the cage to find
Dm
that the beast locked inside
C
didn't wanna to be saved
Bridge
G F C
Panic makes all my decisions for me
G F G
No rational thought just a quick jerk of the knee
C Dm
I am alive
F C
Despite the pain and strife
G Am
My salvation lies in every note
F G
Sent from my heart straight to my throat
C Dm
I bleed for my anger
F C
I hold onto my youth
F C
till my hands shake from this white knuckle grip
verse 2
C
But I've got a gold medal in failure
C
I climb up to the highest block
Dm
I felt the cold down my spine from their empty accolades
Dm
My passion becomes comatose
Dm
But like these notes these problem won't
C
resolve themselves

verse 3
C
And my body is sick of this thinking
C
My Body is sick of the drinking
Dm
Everybody knows what I'm thinking
C
Everybody but me (x2)
Am
and my mind weak from this sickness
G
Head to toe engulfed in the weakness
