Am C G Em
[Verse 1]
Am C G
I feel this darkness creep like thunder
Am C G
Its rolling straight into my spine
Am C G
I feel temptation pull me under
Am C G
My gold has lost all of its shine
Am C G
I try so hard to stay together
Am C G
When everythings falling apart
Am C G
I said that Id stay gold forever
Am C G
It seems that Ive misplaced my heart
[Chorus]
C G Am
Save me from myself, hold me down
F
Lock me away, don't let me out
C G Am
Tie up my wrists and have me shot
F
Please save yourselves, so help me God
[Verse 2]
Am C G
I once was pushed when I was younger
Am C G
I gashed my knee, and I loved the pain
(Oh how I loved to feel the pain)
Am C G
And suddenly I had the hunger
Am C G
to rise up And make him feel the same
(I think thats when I went insane)
Am C G
I pushed him back but I pushed harder
Am C G
I watched him slam into the ground
(I watched him slam into the ground)
Am C G
One day i'll die but Im no martyr
Am C G
And I fear that hell is where I'm bound
[Chorus]
C G Am
Save me from myself, hold me down
F
Lock me away, dont let me out
C G Am
Tie up my wrists and have me shot
F
Please save yourselves, so help me God
C G Am F
so help me God
[Bridge]
C G
This gunshot will drown out the noise in my head
Am F
But these bloodstains won't cover the shame in my bed
C G
And I can't think about it Cause I don't have the time
Am F
Cause either way I'll lose my mind
[Chorus]
C G Am
Save me from myself, hold me down
F
Lock me away, dont let me out
C G Am
Tie up my wrists and have me shot
F
Please save yourselves, so help me God
C G Am
Save me from myself, hold me down
F
Lock me away, don't let me out
C G Am
Tie up my wrists and have me shot
F
Please save yourselves, so help me God
