[Verse 1]
Am Dm F
A master actor, a perfect liar
Am Dm F
All smiles played out with expert timing
Am Dm F
It starts like rust, slow and silent
Am Dm F
But grows like fire, swift and violent
[Verse 2]
Am Dm F
I walk much slower now I've got no direction
Am Dm F
All bends are blind, all cracks chasms
Am Dm F
I love and hate in equal measures the freedom from precision
Am Dm F
That living like this offers, but habits are so easily formed
F G
And not so easily forgotten
[Bridge]
G F
It's nothing that some wine can't sort out
G
Hit the offy, back a bottle
F G
Drop two sleeping pills and hope to pass out
Am F
The run has got me spinning around and down and out
[Instrumental]
Am Dm F Am G
[Refrain]
G F
I hate the person I've become
G
Hate the foil, hate the filters
F G
Hate the blister packs but I won't stop
Am F
The run has got me spinning around and down and out
C G
Praying that the clarity of morning brings
Am F
A peace to ease the mourning of
Am G F
A loss of control as two lives split in half from a whole
[Outro]
Am
She'd say 'I miss you when you're gone'
Em F
And I would wish that I was off anywhere else
Am G
I'm sorry, when I said I didn't love you
F Am
What I meant was I hate myself
