G Em Bm A
[Verse 1]
BmI write to Gstay awake, Dlight dies quicker in the Emwinter time
BmWolves line the Gcity streets, Dall that’s left is a Emtired crime
BmI’ll sleep aGway the cold, I’ll Dwrap myself up like a Emtwisted wire
BmCoiled like a Grattlesnake, Dbites burn just like a Embush fire
[Pre-chorus]
GI’m in Emshock, DI’m in Emshock
GI’m in Emshock, DI’m in Emshock
[Chorus]
I’m a Gswitchblade Emrenegade, Bmmy heart’s buried in the Ajunkyard
GCovered it in Emkerosene, Bmburned it up in Acold regard
I’m a Gswitchblade Emrenegade, I’m Bmnot stand up, I’ve got Alies down
GTo the core, I’m a Emcarnivore, BmI will never be Aearthbound
[Interlude]
G Em Bm A
[Verse 2]
BmDark bites aGway the sun, Dleaves behind its Emshy twin
BmLight’s there for Ganyone, DI have had my Emfill within
BmMy thoughts break like Gfalling glass, Dshatter when I try to Emlet them out
BmColor cracks, I can’t Gtake it back, I Dwish I’d never oEmpened my mouth
[Pre-chorus]
GI’m in Emshock, DI’m in Emshock
GI’m in Emshock, DI’m in Emshock
