Lyrics:
You help me survive, you're the reason I'm alive
Speak softly, cyanide - passed from your mouth into mine
Your breathing sounds like the sickest music playing backwards in my head
Contagions so hellacious - you can't find the words, so you scream instead
Pre-Chorus
Sorry if the tabs look messed up timewise. You'll have to figure out the rhythm yourself.

Verse 2
(Same guitar parts, different lyrics)
You could help me hide, you could keep me inside
Heart broken, petrified - what am I supposed to do if you don't try?
Mad symmetry, senseless poetry, laying naked on my bed
Contracted and frustrated, you won't say a word and your eyes are dead
Pre-Chorus

(No guitar, just let the open B ring out for a while. Just a piano and a few incoherent noises)

Hopefully it sounds correct to you guys. Corrections are appreciated! Send
me a message for any suggestions, whether it be System of a Down, Stone
Sour, whatever it may be. And again, sorry for the weird timing in the
tablature.
