E                      G         
Tempting fate with the crisis 
     A           E
that my vices will orchestrate
            G     D           E
Cold sweats as my bold pupils dilate
        C
I could die from the weight of it 
all
C                              
Or make it through another close 
     G       C
call

Here’s a note to myself, “Back to
        D
 the wall
                    E        
The higher you get, girl, the 
                C
further you fall”
                        G          
Here’s a note to myself, “Alone in 
      D
my pain
         D#m         E            
How close can you come to the edge
     C               E
 before you walk away?”

[verse 2]
E                       G        
Through blackened veins the evil 
        A            E
in the needle bleeds into my brain
  G                 D        
And sells me on the sense of a 
   E
fool’s escape
        C
I could die from the weight of it 
all
C                  E       C

But I just need one more taste, one 
more taste
C                             
Scars earned from searching for 
      E
solutions
G   D        C
So desperate just to feel
                    E              
Sold on self-prescribed pollution, 
D               A
just distorting what was real
And so it goes in the throes of what
   G          C
 I can’t overcome
           D#m
Painfully numb
