TRIGGER WARNING: self violence / domestic violence

I thought about making this song private, but there are so few people who will see it I thought it would be okay to leave as a trigger warning. hopefully that is okay with fawm. If not please just click back and move on. Not that I think it's too personal or too deep, but after writing the song it seemed a little too violent. i just don't want anyone who doesn't want to hear these things to have to hear them, but unfortunately that is where I am. Next one will have to be happy for sure.

# notes

something is off on the first chorus, was playing around with a F and different chords but this is a song i just want to write and file away but also something i'm oddly attracted to. maybe i could rewrite the chorus. i feel like the hook falls a bit flat.
this take was decent even with it's problems, mostly the choruses. i've been really working on bm and this bridge sounds great if i can hit the chord, it's so close and i hit it on "content with scars and tears" on this take. could probably get a better take but was wanting to write another song and it's late.

Lyrics

[capo 2]
Em C
i'm sick, of these thoughts in my head
G D
tired of pretending you'll understand

em c
and i'm not saying, that i need your help
lord knows you got to save yourself

em
punch me, kick me
am
close the door
c g
show me, that you don't care

em
shoot me, stab me
am
twist the blade
C g
i don't need this wounded heart

em -c - g - d
and you don't owe me a god damn thing
but it be nice to know you care
and if we can't share our breath
than it's not worth breathing at all

bm - am - em - walk
but still i cling to the this life
content with scars and tears
but i'd fight for your love
if just one day to live

[alt chorus]
am
punch me, kick me
em
close the door
c g
show me, that you don't care

em
shoot me, stab me
am
twist the blade
C g
i don't need a wounded heart

Em -----
i'm sick, of these thoughts in my head
