Am                         F                 Dm G
I tried it once before but I didn't get too far
I felt a lot of pain but it didn't stop my heart
And all I really wanted was someone to give a little fuck
But I waited there forever and nobody even looked up

I tried it once before and I think I mighta messed up
I struggled with the veins and I guess I didn't bleed enough
But maybe I'm alive because I didn't really wanna die
But nothing very special ever happens in my life
  
Am              F
Take the blade away from me
  Dm            G
I am a freak, I am afraid that
Am              F               Dm
All the blood escaping me won't end the pain
    G                Am                 F
And I'll be haunting all the lives that cared for me
  Dm             G
I died to be the white ghost
       F              Dm         Am F Dm G
Of the man that I was meant to be
 
I tried it like before and this time I made a deep cut
I thought about my friends and the way I didn't give enough
And I shoulda told my mother 'mom, I love you' like a good son
But this life is overwhelming and I'm ready for the next one
  
Am              F
Take the blade away from me...
       F              Dm                Am F Am C G F Am C G F Dm
Of the man that I was meant to be, yeah
 
   Am
I tried it once again and I think I might black out
  Am
I shoulda left a letter but I had nothing to write about
My blood is all around me, I get dizzy if I stand up
The cutting part was easy but regretting it is so fucked
 
Take the blade away from me...

  Am
I tried it once again and I think I went too far
    F              Dm
(The man that I was meant to be,)
  Am
I cut a little deeper and the pressure stopped my heart
    F              Dm
(The man that I was meant to be,)
  Am
I couldn't tell my mother 'mom, I love you', I'm a bad son
     F                            Dm
This life is overwhelming and I'm ready for the next one
