E F# G#m C#m B F#
[First Verse]
E F# G#m
New hearts breathe life into mine
E F# G#m
And I see bright eyes, they shimmer and shine
E F# G#m
But they never stay for the night cause
C#m B F#
I hope that you might
E F# G#m
Wake up and fill up the space
E F# G#m
With all the late nights and some pretty face
E F# G#m
But I don't hear one word they ever say
C#m B F#
'Cause I miss your taste
[Chorus]
E
I traded my soul for this
F# G#m
Breaking in my skin
E
I shoot and I always miss
F# G#m
Body feels lived in
E
Is there something on TV
F# G#m
Just to waste my time?
C#m
What good is lonely
B F#
When I'll always only be mine?
E F# G#m E F# G#m
E F# G#m C#m B F#
[Second Verse]
E F# G#m
Staring down phantoms at night
E F# G#m
They always catch me with smoke in my eyes
E F# G#m
Now I've sung this song too many times
C#m B F#
And it feels like a lie
E F# G#m
Wear my hunger and heart on my sleeve
E F# G#m
And that's why the ones I love always leave
E F# G#m
I couldn't say what you wanted from me
C#m B F#
I forgot how to speak
[Chorus]
E
I traded my soul for this
F# G#m
Breaking in my skin
E
I shoot and I always miss
F# G#m
Body feels lived in
E
Is there something on TV
F# G#m
Just to waste my time?
C#m
What good is lonely
B F#
When I'll always only be mine?

[Bridge]
E G#
Tomorrow's a nightmare, I'm dreaming today
F# E F#
And my head is haunted, the past just can't stay
E G#
The devil you know, yeah, he comes and he goes
G#m F#
I'm selfish and vapid, I hide in my prose
[Chorus]
E
I traded my soul for this
F# G#m
Breaking in my skin
E
I shoot and I always miss
F# G#m
Body feels lived in
E
Is there something on TV
F# G#m
Just to waste my time?
C#m
What good is lonely
B F#
When I'll always only be mine?
[Outro]
E
I traded my soul for this
F# G#m
Breaking in my skin
E
I shoot and I always miss
F# G#m
Body feels lived in
E
Is there something on TV
F# G#m
Just to waste my time?
C#m
What good is lonely
B F#
When I'll always only be mine?
[verse 1]
new hearts breathe life into mine
and i see bright eyes, they shimmer and shine
but they never stay for the night cause
i hope that you might
wake up and fill up the sp+ce
with all the late nights and some pretty face
but i don’t hear one word they ever say
’cause i miss your taste
[chorus]
i traded my soul for this
breaking in my skin
i shoot and i always miss
body feels lived in
is there something on tv
just to waste my time?
what good is lonely
when i’ll always only be mine?
[verse 2]
staring down phantoms at night
they always catch me with smoke in my eyes
now i’ve sung this song too many times
and it feels like a lie
wear my hunger and heart on my sleeve
and that’s why the ones i love always leave
i couldn’t say what you wanted from me
i forgot how to speak
[chorus]
i traded my soul for this
breaking in my skin
i shoot and i always miss
body feels lived in
is there something on tv
just to waste my time?
what good is lonely
when i’ll always only be mine?
[bridge]
tomorrow’s a nightmare, i’m dreaming today
and my head is haunted, the past just can’t stay
the devil you know, yeah, he comes and he goes
i’m selfish and vapid, i hide in my prose
[chorus]
i traded my soul for this
breaking in my skin
i shoot and i always miss
body feels lived in
is there something on tv
just to waste my time?
what good is lonely
when i’ll always only be mine?
