[Verse 1]
Bm
Bury me
Just leave me to sleep in the dirt
Finish me
I'm floating away
There's a demon staring straight through your eyes
Am I wasting my time?
Something's turning inside of me
You make me feel like I'm fucking drowning I need to cut
you out
You made my world come crashing down around me
I need to cut you out
                         Bm   D
Oh God I wish you'd just speak

[Chorus]
to me
G           F#
Black is all  that I see
Bm   D
Speak to me
G                      F#
You used to be all that
I needed

[Verse 2]
Bm          Bm
  I've been crucified and hung out to dry
Yet my heart still beats and I feel so alive
This time I'll fight for myself as you try to fuck me over
I bet you never cared
I knew you never cared
You make me feel like I'm fucking drowning I need to cut
you out
You made my world come crashing down around me
I need to cut you out

[Chorus]
Bm   D
Speak to me
G           F#
Black is all  that I see
Bm   D
Speak to me
G                      F#
You used to be all that  I needed

[Bridge]
Bm  F#m             E
  I need to cut you out,
  D               C#
I need to cut you out
  F#m             E
I need to cut you out,
  D               C#
I need to cut you out
F#m                     E
   I wish you could save me
                       D
There's something lost inside
                        C#
I'm scared it might kill  me
       F#m                      E
All my life I've needed you with me
                     D
You've always let me down
            C#
But still I try

[Outro]
F#m                D
Don't leave me here
              Bm
I need you around (don't turn your back on me,
C#
don't turn your back on me)
F#m     D            Bm                      C#
Lift my feet off the ground (I can't cut you out)
F#m D Bm C#
F#m D Bm C#

Lift my feet off the ground (I can't cut you out)
