Standard family disaster

Lovers, brothers, other bastards

Told me where to go

I shook my lumps then took off running

Into the unknown

I've never been strictly speaking sane

I should've known fresh dirt won't wash old stains away
[Verse]
  F                   C
I tried to drown your memory

It learned to swim, and clung to me

Kissed my cheek sadistically

And dragged me down below

I've never been strictly speaking sane

            F                                       C
I should've known fresh dirt won't wash old stains away
[Chorus]

I was so angry then

In psychic self-defense

Wasting energy

         Absus4               Gsus4
Fighting something I couldn't see

                F*    Gsus4* Fsus4* Asus4*
Just fighting myself
[Verse]
N.C.   F                C
I know time unfolds and then it tangles

Gm                   Dm
Strings attached and feelings mangled

Bb                    Eb
Some threads severed, some still dangle

F                C
Some just drift away
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm
There's no point to waste the blame

     Bb
I've never been strictly speaking sane

            F                                       C
I should've known fresh dirt won't wash old stains away
[Chorus]
Bb
The last thing I tried to do

Db
Was end up hurting you

  F           Dm
I found my enemy

        Absus4                  Gsus4
Staring back from the mirror at me

                     F*
I've been fighting myself

Bb         F*
Fighting myself
[Outro]
        Bb     Dm              Gm
There's nobody in the ring but me

  C                   Bb                 C
I broke some things I know just can't be fixed

        F                 C                Bb
While I fought for what I wanted more than anything

    C                Dm
You stuck around for kicks
