Origin Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
This [Am]is the death of my or[F]igin[Am]
This is the death [F]of my origin
[Am]No rest for the sick and weary,
just a rope growing tighter [F]around my [Am]neck
For twenty- five years,
I've tried so hard but now it feels like twenty- [F]five too [Am]long
Just for a moment, I [G]wish that I could breathe without
[E]the weight [Am]of the world cr[Em]ushing d[F]own on me

[Verse 2]
Bet[Am]ter off dead,
no burden to my friends
No more days of wishing I won't
have to wake up the next
[Dm]Does it [F]matter

[Verse 3]
[Am]if I am
dead or [G]alive?
[F]The future seems so [Am]dark but I'm trying
to [G]keep my head above the water
[F][Am]

[Verse 4]
I am [G]so [Am]sick and fed up with
the burden of [C]my [Am]conscious[G]ness
[Am]The voic[C]es in my[Am] head,[C]
[Am]I only hear them say t[G]hat [Am]I'll[C] be[Am] dead bef[E]ore the dawn[C][Am]
Wave goodbye to your sanity and just
remember you'll never truly be at [Bb]peace
[Am]No one knows how i[Bb]t feels to[Am] hate
the one that lies in [Bb]your own [Am]skin

[Verse 5]
[Am]Better off dead,
no burden to my friends
No more days of wishing I won't
have to wake up the next
[Dm]Does it

[Verse 6]
[F]matter [Am]if I am
dead or [G]alive?
[F]The future seems so [Am]dark but I'm trying to
[G]keep my head above the water
[Am][G]

[Verse 7]
I'm trying [F]to keep my [C]head above the wa[Dm]ter but the t[Am]ide [G]keep[F] s,
it keeps [C]rising and [G]rising[Am]
So safe, so [G]small with the
rope tight around my [F]neck
One last [Am]goodbye to re[C]mind you that al[Dm]though I'm sick,
I [Am]love you still and I [G]hope you [F]won't [Am]for get me w[G]hen I'm [Am]gone

[Verse 8]
[Am]
The proper way to die was not
a [G]choice [Dm]for me to m[G]ake
I [F]held on as long as I could
but I [C]lost my grip
The [Dm]anxiety that plagued me
is but a [Am]bitter [G]memory
[F]I'll reap what I have sown and take
that [E]step to bring me [F]peace
God help me if you exist,
[E]this is not a wor[G]ld I'm meant to liv[Am]e in

[Outro 1]
[Am][Am]
