Dear diary

This battle’s on the verge of emergency

           G       E               G
Call in a chemical warfare attack

E                      G              A           E
Tempting fate with the crisis 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                                   G       C
Or make it through another close call

C                       G                D
Here’s a note to myself, “Back to the wall

                    E                        C
The higher you get, girl, the further you fall”

                        G                D
Here’s a note to myself, “Alone in my pain

         D#m         E                 C               E
How close can you come to the edge before you walk away?”

E                       G                A            E
Through blackened veins the evil in the needle bleeds into my brain

  G                 D           E
And sells me on the sense of a fool’s escape

        C
I could die from the weight of it all

C                  E       C
Or make it through another close call

C                       G                D
Here’s a note to myself, “Back to the wall

                    E                        C
The higher you get, girl, the further you fall”

                        G                D
Here’s a note to myself, “Alone in my pain

         D#m         E                 C               E
How close can you come to the edge before you walk away?”

C                  E
Before you walk away

C                        E
But I just need one more taste, one more taste

C                                   E
Scars earned from searching for solutions

G   D        C
So desperate just to feel

                    E              D               A
Sold on self-prescribed pollution, just distorting what was real

                                       G          C
And so it goes in the throes of what I can’t overcome

           D#m
Painfully numb

C
Before you walk away
