capo: 4th fret
[verse]
Bm
this is a place i know too well
Bm G Bm
been down here a while, if you can't tell
Bm G Bm
and i have analyzed
E G
And tried my best to justify
Bm
The sorrow i have brought upon myself
[chorus]
Bm
Am i addicted to the misery
A Em
Is this how i'll always be?
G
Grinding the salt into every wound?
Bm
Am i in love with all my ailments
A Em
Glutton for punishment?
G
You can't trust me to be there for you
[verse]
Bm
i thought i had this
Em
I thought i had this all figured out
G
you'd think i'd learned from all the shit
I fucking screamed about
Bm
when there was sun
Em
I couldn't see for the clouds
G
Still climbing the walls
Bm
Of this well just to dive back down
A
Until i reached my rock bottom
Bm
down to the marrow
A
Bringing up the bad blood i'd forgotten
Bm A
is it me that's making me sick?
Bm A
Been burning both ends of the wick
[chorus]
Bm
Am i addicted to the misery
A Em
Is this how i'll always be?
G
Grinding the salt into every wound?
Bm
Am i in love with all my ailments
A Em
Glutton for punishment?
G
You can't trust me to be there for you
Bm
I've got this cold black
A
Silhouette hanging like a marionette
Em G
casting a shadow, a shade over me
Bm
Just a sick, sad, sorry mess
A Em
Living like a masochist
G
Your worst impressions were right about me
[bridge]
Bm A G
your worst impressions were right about me
Bm A G
your worst impressions were right
G
I could ask you to stay, if you're feeling forgiving
Bm
I could live with the guilt
A
If you call this living
G
I could try to memorize each grain of sand
Bm
As it slips through my fingers
A
And falls from my hands
G A
it took me longer than i'd care to admit
Em Bm
this life is only what i choose to make of it
Em
And the only thing standing
G
In-between happiness and myself
Was this depression i held so close to my chest
[chorus]

[interlude]
Bm G Bm G
[outro]
Bm A
wasting a waning youth
Em G
waiting for something to help me pull through
Bm A
i never saw the sun through the clouds
Em G
i lost faith when the skies were falling down
This is a place I know too well
Been down here a while, if you can't tell
And I have analyzed and tried my best to justify
The sorrow I have brought upon myself
Am I addicted to the misery, is this how I'll always be?
Grinding the salt into every wound?
Am I in love with all my ailments, glutton for punishment?
You can't trust me to be there for you
I thought I had this, I thought I had this all figured out
You'd think I'd learned from all the shit I fucking screamed about
When there was sun I couldn't see for the clouds
Still climbing the walls of this well just to dive back down
Until I reached my rock bottom
Down to the marrow, bringing up the bad blood I'd forgotten
Is it me that's making me sick?
Been burning both ends of the wick
Am I addicted to the misery, is this how I'll always be?
Grinding the salt into every wound?
Am I in love with all my ailments, glutton for punishment?
You can't trust me to be there for you
I've got this cold black silhouette hanging like a marionette
Casting a shadow, a shade over me
Just a sick, sad, sorry mess, living like a masochist
Your worst impressions were right about me
Your worst impressions were right about me
Your worst impressions were right
I could ask you to stay, if you're feeling forgiving
I could live with the guilt, if you call this living

And the only thing standing in-between happiness and myself
Was this depression I held so close to my chest
Am I addicted to the misery, is this how I'll always be?
Grinding the salt into every wound?
Am I in love with all my ailments, glutton for punishment?
You can't trust me to be there for you
I've got this cold black silhouette hanging like a marionette
Casting a shadow, a shade over me
Just a sick, sad, sorry mess, living like a masochist
Your worst impressions were right about me
Wasting a waning youth
Waiting for something to help me pull through
I never saw the sun through the clouds
I lost faith when the skies were falling down
