[Verse 1]
Em C
I didn't mean to hurt you when I hurt myself
G D
It's just an empty voice screaming out for help
Em
No, I didn't mean to scare you
C
But I couldn't see
G D
That when I went to hell I was taking you with me
[Chorus 1]
Em
When I close my eyes
C
I'm climbing in the dark
G
Trying not to fall apart
D Em
Sometimes I get so high
C G
Falling is the only out I see
D Em
And I don't wanna take you down with me
[Pre-Drop 1]
C
You're the love in my heart
G
Only love in my heart
D
Take you down
Em
Take you down with me
C
(Don't wanna take you down)
G
(Take you down)
D
(Take you) down with me
[Drop 1]

Em C G D
[Verse 2]
Em
This life is like a razor
C
When it cuts, I bleed
G
But it's in my hand
D
And I'm doing it to me
Em
Sometimes it's like an ocean
C
And it gets too deep
G D
And there's no way that now you could rescue me
[Chorus 2]
Em
When I close my eyes
C
I'm fighting in the dark
G
Trying not to break your heart
D Em
Sometimes I get so high
C G
Falling is the only out I see
D Em
And I don't wanna take you down with me
[Bridge]
C
You need to let it go now
G D
Before you drown
Em
I know that you won't understand
C
But you need to let go of these hands
G
'Cause I'm going down
D
And I don't wanna take you down with me
[Drop 2]
Em C G D
And I don't wanna take you down with me
Em C G D
Take you down, down with me
[End]
Em C G D
