Bm        A
Let me be absolutely clear
Bm             A
This is mine, but I'll let you in

Gather 'round, take a part of it
   Bm      A
Of me, of me
Bm             A
A wasted life seems to mean the most
Bm                A
But these seconds are valuable

Bm                A
Breathe in change or let it go
      Bm   A
And breathe

To me, to me

That medicine is killing me
I'll give you something to think about
Some pieces have gone missing
