To Fall Asleep

C                  G
Bittersweet remedy, heal me
C                           G
I've tried to be everything you need
 of me

[Verse 1]
    Am                     C
I'm not holding my breath, I know 
that ruin merely rests
  G
I can feel it pressed against my 
chest
    Am                             
Like a virus; I've tried to find us 
C
a way out of this hole
G
With my hands pressed against my 
nose
Am                     C
I'm trying to be holy, but I still 
don't feel whole
Am                     C
I'm trying to be holy, but I still 
don't feel whole

[Chorus]
Am
Can't you see that it's haunting me
C                                
Every night when I try to sleep? I'm
Am
 so weak

Am
Burdened by the epiphany
C
Misery's periphery won't let me be

[Verse 2]
Em
The grass is always greener when you
 live in black and white
Am
I try to close my eyes, imagine 
everything's alright
C
Honey like an arrow, sewn into a 
quiver
G
It's in my marrow, it's in my liver
Am
You watch me wilt away like a flower
 without rain
G                                  
There's nothing you can do, honey, 
C
please just look away
Am                         Em
I am nailed to this cross, and I 
must carry it alone
Am                         C
I'd ask you to hold my hands, but 
they're worn to the bone

[Chorus]
Am
Can't you see that it's haunting me
C                                
Every night when I try to sleep? I'm
Am
 so weak
Am
Burdened by the epiphany
C
Misery's periphery won't let me be

[Bridge]
Am                  G
Bittersweet remedy, leave me
F                  G
Its shadow follows me
F        G
I try to fall asleep

[Otro]
C
Fall asleep
G
I try to fall asleep
