[Verse 1]
I wish our skin would meDet
A sting I wish would blEmeed
Like toBothpicks sliding under fingernailsG  
Don't you need a breath of aDir?
'Cause you're biEmting at my head
Like stBarving great whites feeding in the deep eGnd
And BmI wish I was just as strong as AI make myself out to be
[Chorus]
I'm twDisting my words to appeaEmr like
This doesn't burnB  
I'm staring at the sun, papGercuts are in my eyes
SDhrinking our worth, mixing fiEmction
With crime like a subsBtance
I'm addicted to
Diving iGnto the salt tides
[Verse 2]
I took you like a thDief
A pinch that doesn't lEmeave
It's like iBce cubes grinding at your front teethG  
And I miss you while you taDlk
It's a comforting sense of shEmock
Feels like silBver caught inside a toasterG  
And BmI wish I was just as strong as AI make myself out to be
[Chorus]
I'm twDisting my words to appeaEmr like
This doesn't burnB  
I'm staring at the sun, papGercuts are in my eyes
SDhrinking our worth, mixing fiEmction
With crime like a subsBtance
I'm addicted to
Diving iGnto the salt tides

[Verse 1]

I wish our skin would meet

A sting I wish would bleed

B G

Like toothpicks sliding under fingernails

Don't you need a breath of air?

'Cause you're biting at my head

B G

Like starving great whites feeding in the deep end

Bm A

And I wish I was just as strong as I make myself out to be

[Chorus]

D Em

I'm twisting my words to appear like

This doesn't burn

I'm staring at the sun, papercuts are in my eyes

D Em

Shrinking our worth, mixing fiction

With crime like a substance

I'm addicted to

Diving into the salt tides

[Verse 2]

I took you like a thief

A pinch that doesn't leave

B G

It's like ice cubes grinding at your front teeth

And I miss you while you talk

It's a comforting sense of shock

B G

Feels like silver caught inside a toaster

Bm A

And I wish I was just as strong as I make myself out to be

[Chorus]

D Em

I'm twisting my words to appear like

This doesn't burn

I'm staring at the sun, papercuts are in my eyes

D Em

Shrinking our worth, mixing fiction

With crime like a substance

I'm addicted to

Diving into the salt tides

A fever that I'll never break

'Cause I keep pushing pills away

B G

Just to see my body shake

Expensive red wine

I hate the taste

And how the slightest spill will stain

B G

I drink with you anyway

Bm A

'Cause I know that I'm not as strong as I make myself out to be

[Chorus]

D Em

I'm twisting my words to appear like

This doesn't burn

I'm staring at the sun, papercuts are in my eyes

D Em

I'm twisting my words to appear like

This doesn't burn

I'm staring at the sun, papercuts are in my eyes

D Em

Shrinking our worth, mixing fiction

With crime like a substance

I'm addicted to

Diving into the salt tides

[Outro]

Bm A

I wish I was just as strong as I make myself out to be
