Empty

C/E Em C/E Bm/D C

[Verse 1]
C/E                    Em
Mirror mirror on the wall, yeah
C/E                       Bm/D
Tunnel vision on the flaws
         C
In the scale of things 
it's unimportant
       C
So no talking, but it's still an 
intrusive thought

      C/E             Em
Tried hard to correct it, yeah
    C/E                   Bm/D
But nothing was effective, uh
       C
No one else seemed so obsessed with 
it
             C
Things were desperate until the 
voice crept in

[Verse 2]
       C/E     Em                 
"I can help you, trust me, you're 
C/E   Bm/D
ready"
C
It seemed dangerous
C
But it said to have faith in it

      C/E       Em         C/E   
"The secret is to just be empty"
Bm/D

C/F
Didn't know if it was wise to 
listen, but
C/A
What could it hurt to try?

[Pre-Chorus]
        Am
And at first, it was working,  but 
then things were emerging
        F                       
Cracked lips and tired eyes, I'm 
  G
hungry with no appetite
      Am
I'm shivering and shaking, and I 
tell myself it's fine, but
 F                               
You can't fool your body, you can 
  G
only fool your mind, yeah

Am                                
Empty, I just need to be empty, 
                         F
hide from anybody who'll prevent me
                            G
Just fill up on water and shame, no,
 I'm not hungry, I just ate
Am
I've developed a taste for this, 
Endure the neverending ache
          F                         
        G                           
 N.C.
Convince myself I'm in control and 
it's not all that voice that makes 
me sick

[Chorus]
Am                  C/D  C
Inside it's em-em-em-empty
  Fmaj7
I know, I know it's wrong
                          F
I'm looking, but I can't see myself

Am                  C/D  C
Inside it's em-em-em-empty
  Fmaj7
I know, I know it's wrong
                          F
But it's so hard to stop it alone

[Verse 3]
C/E                Em
Been getting even worse
C/E                          Bm/D
All the days begin to merge, yeah
               C
Just a blurry haze and now it's
               C
Almost second nature to ignore the 
urges

C/E                   Em
Can't trust my own nature
C/E                     Bm/D
Every calorie a failure, ah
       C
Gotta push the intake down every day
C
'Cause the voice comes back to say

[Verse 4]
    C/E      Em   C/E           Bm/D
"You want to eat? Bite your tongue"
C
Don't want to stay an embarrassment
C
Just have to stomach it

C/E          Em  C/E           Bm/D
"They don't know what you want"
  C/F
A tug of war against common sense
      C/A
Don't wanna believe that I've 
overstepped

[Pre-Chorus]
         Am
But it's so overwhelming and I hope 
no one can tell
            F                      
'Cause the numbers keep decreasing,
         G
 this ordeal is becoming routine, 
check
Am
Arms, back, neck, thighs, suck it in
 and pinch my sides
      F                         
The scales are betraying me, the 
  G
mirror is a lie, yeah

Am
Numbers, it all comes down to 
numbers I know it's wrong but
       F                    
Just because you know you're 
                      G
colorblind, doesn't mean you can see
 the colors
Am
Fine, I admit I'm addicted, but the 
hunger feels good, how do I quit 
this
                F                   
                   G                
                  N.C.
I know I could die, I've seen the 
statistics, but the voice is with me
 through thick and thin

[Chorus]
Am                  C/D  C
Inside it's em-em-em-empty
  Fmaj7
I know, I know it's wrong
                          F
I'm looking, but I can't see myself

Am                  C/D  C
Inside it's em-em-em-empty
  Fmaj7
I know, I know it's wrong
                          F
But it's so hard to stop it alone

[Chorus]
Am                  C/D  C
Inside it's em-em-em-empty
  Fmaj7
I know, I know it's wrong
                          F
I'm looking, but I can't see myself

Am                  C/D  C
Inside it's em-em-em-empty
  Fmaj7
I know, I know it's wrong
                          F
But it's so hard to stop it alone

[Bridge]
Am
I can reach out
          Asus2    Asus4

If you ask for help it, doesn't make
 you weak
