[Verse]
                      D7      F    
It begins with a dark glowing ember
                                        F 
Something black burning it's way out of me
Bb               
Searing the flesh
                         A7  
Pain is the only thing I feel
            D7 
Scars all I see
                                    F    
Oh no the fire's burning my insides again
                                   Bb     
What can I do to silence my desire tonight
                                           A7   
Face consumer reason leaving all the ashes there
                       A7                  
You won't catch me for granting my decision


[Chorus]
  Bb         G7      G      D                F7  
I can't keep telling myself ■ what I want to hear
Bb7   Bb         F7       Bb D   
■   I can't just close my ■  eyes
                 D         
I know that it's killing me
         C                       
And it's poisoning the best of me
                          Bb     
But I say I don't want to believe
                   Bb              
So let me tell you boy tell you boy
C                Db  
About the lies I lead
D                          C                       
That is how it kills I got some flames and gasoline
                         Bb                          
Broken teeth replace the blackout memories in my head


[Bridge]
                  A        A7    D7        F    Bb A7       
Wreckage from the blast it often ■  shakes ■ me to the floor
       A               Amaj7 D              
I know it's over but I can't go home tonight


[Verse]
                                            D7    
And after this I feel as empty as the night before
                      F                 Bb      
Feel the pain and yet I'm still begging for more
            Bb                                    
Masochistic nihilistic gurging wrecked up thoughts
F                            A7                Bb   
My life's a mess and I can't find a way to fix ■  it
             G       G7     D    D7     Db7 Bb  
I can't keep telling myself what I want to  hear
                      C    D
I can't just close my eyes ■


[Chorus]
                 C         
I know that it's killing me
         Bb            C         
And it's poisoning the best of me
D                      C         
But I say I don't want to believe
          Bb                       
So let me tell you boy tell you boy
                 A   
About the lies I lead


[Bridge]
        D       C  
Calling calling out
G                              
The darkness reaches up my soul
D7               D        
I'm riddled with selfdoubt
                  C  
Crawling crawling out
G                                      
My will to fight will more than suffice
D                     A7  
While others will lay down
                         D      
It's only as dark as you make it


[Chorus]
                 C         
I know that it's killing me
         Bb        C             
And it's poisoning the best of me
D                      C         
But I say I don't want to believe
          Bb                    Bbmaj7
So let me tell you boy tell you boy   
          A7          C D7 F
About the lies I lead ■ ■  ■
