 I’ve got some deep scars  from a little  black heart  that’s miles  away.
 I sent it packing  after I saw  what it did  and I couldn’t  believe.
 And now my chest hurts  from the hole  that I dug.  It’s getting harder  to breathe.
 I’m really gasping,  wishing I  could turn back  and that would fix  everything
 (for once.)  It’s my life, I might as well live  it.
 Along with the bad  times, just happy to be living.
 So it’s  my time. I know it sounds selfish.
 I’m really not like  that. We live and we die  for this.
 (play marked RIFFs in the verse along with chords)

 So now my head hurts and it’s only getting worse every time that I think.
 RIFF 2>
 I feel a choking every time I have to sing. It’s getting harder for me.
 RIFF 1>
 And now my stomach hurts. As long as I’m in love it’s so hard to leave.
 RIFF 2>
 I feel a bad pain moving through my chest and my knees start to shake.
 My knees  start to shake. It’s bringing  me down.
 This is my  life. I might as well live  it.
 Along with the bad  times. Just love to be living.
 So this is my  time. It know it sounds selfish.
 I think I’ll have some ice  cream. We live and we die  for this.
 There’s one  thing missing every time I step outside.
One  thing missing every time I leave and drive.
One  thing missing every time I’m far from home.
 There’s one  thing missing every time I leave for months.
One  thing missing every time I lose control.
There’s  one thing missing every time that I stay home.
 I’ve got some deep scars  from a little  black heart  that only  make me stronger.
 And now I don’t sleep  seeing any  relief.  It gives  me some perspective.
 This is my  life. I might as well live  it.
 Along with the bad  times. Just glad to be living.
 And this is my  time. I might as well share  it.
 I’ll give you all my money.  We live and we die  for this.
