Intro: Em, C, G, D (Play 2 times)

Em           G                    C
Memories consume like opening the wounds
                D
I'm picking me apart again
Em        G
You all assume
                C
I'm safer in my room 
                  D
Unless I try to start again
Dm                             C
I don't want to be the one the battles always choose
       Dm                    Am
'cause inside I realize that I'm the one confused

  Em                        C
I don't know what's worth fighting for
   G             D
Or why I have to scream
  Em               C
I don't know why I instigate
    G                D
And say what I don't mean
   Em              C
I don't know how I got this way
  G              D
I know it's not alright
       C            D
So I'm breaking the habit
    C            D     Em
I'm breaking the habit tonight

(Same as first verse)
Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more than any time before
I have no options left again

Dm                             C
I don't want to be the one the battles always choose
       Dm                    Am
'cause inside I realize that I'm the one confused

  Em                        C
I don't know what's worth fighting for
   G             D
Or why I have to scream
  Em               C
I don't know why I instigate
    G                D
And say what I don't mean
   Em              C
I don't know how I got this way
  G         D
I never be alright
       C            D
So I'm breaking the habit
    C            D     Em
I'm breaking the habit tonight

Em                       D     
I'll paint it on the walls
C                           D
Cuz I'm the one at fault
Em                     D
I'll never fight again
C                          D
And this is how it ends


  Em                        C
I don't know what's worth fighting for
   G             D
Or why I have to scream
  Em               C
I don't know why I instigate
    G                D
And say what I don't mean
   Em              C
I don't know how I got this way
  G              D
I know it's not alright
       C            D
So I'm breaking the habit
       C            D
I'm breaking the habit

    C            D     Em
I'm breaking the habit tonight
