and
the (C/D)tap drips all (G)night water (C/D)torture in the (G)sink

C/D G C/D G C/D G D C
and
(C/D)I can smell the (G)bleach that they (C/D)use in the (G)hall
but
it (C/D)can't clean the (G)dirt off of (D)me(C)
it's
seeping (C/D)under the (G)door, (C/D)in across the (G)floor
it's
(C/D)starting to (G)hurt (D)every(C)time I (C/D)bre(G)athe (D)

I try to (C/D)le(G)ave (D)
(C)everytime

the toaster sticks and the empties are piled
I
haven't been up the stairs in a while now
I
gotta wash the sheets on my bed, I gotta watch those things that go
unsaid
god
I wish we could leave it at this
everytime
I breathe

and
(D)no one is watching me sl(C)ide
(D)below
street level barely al(C)ive
now
we live out where the street ends
in
a basement apartment just like our friends
we
always said that we were different
but
you know now that we weren't
cuz
there's holes in all the bottles and my lungs hurt
everytime
I breathe
everytime
I try to leave
everytime
I breathe
