Fluorescents

      A           G   C     
Does it help if I say that I'm 
   F
sorry?
           Am                  C  
I know the burning in my blood has
                F
 made you worry a lot
         A             D       C 
Like the medicine they gave me 
   F
that hurt me
       G                           
If you leave when I'm sleeping 
               F
could you turn the lights off?
Am                C       Am     
My eyes ache if I wake up bathing in
 F
 fluorescence
     Am                      C    
It's hard to shake the phosphenes 
F
and iridescence
     Am          C             F
When intravenous makes me feel heavy
Am                            Em 
As frail as glass, and fading 
     C          F
fast, I think that I'm ready to 
leave


[Chorus]
           Am       G       
So give me one good reason to 
  F
believe I'm getting better
   Am                           
My weight keeps fluctuating and I 
Em F
struggle to remember
    Am              G         
The last time I slept through a 
  F                             
night without needing to shed my 
G       Em
blood
    F
I'm so sick of feeling alone

Am


[Verse 2]
                 A
But I can't stop thinking about
           Am         A
Every time that you'd leave me alone
 in the house
        C
And I'd lay in my bed, suffocating 
with doubt

Over whether I'd manage to function 
without
           F
Having you there to make sure I take
 what they gave me
To kill off the pain that I'm going 
        Am
through daily
                       G           
In every way that I am strong, I am
           F
 also weak

For all the words my lungs have 
birthed
              Am
I struggle to speak

To you about anything
G                             A
That makes me feel like a burden


[Instrumental]
G F Am F  A G F G Em G F


[Bridge]
        Am   A      G           
Does it hurt you if I say I can feel
F
 the decay?
     Dm    Am     C        F
In a hospital bed I wither away
           D     A          D  C
Behind the curtains I've been 
            F
crying almost every night
        G                          
I don't want to ache like this for 
    F
the rest of my life


[Chorus]
           Am  A     G     
So give me one good reason to 
    F
believe I'm getting better
   Am                           
My weight keeps fluctuating and I 
Em F
struggle to remember
    Am          G             
The last time I slept through a 
  F                             
night without needing to shed my 
G  Em
blood
    F
I'm so sick of feeling alone
