Fm                       A#m
Twisted all my limbs for you
D#                        G#              C
Two of them in knots and two of them in loops
Fm                         A#m
Ribbons tied around like a noose
D#                          G#  C
Wonder if I'll ever get it loose
Fm                       A#m
I don't wanna bruise for you
D#                      G#               C
Holding back my words until my face is blue
Fm                              A#m
I don't really care about your crew
                   D#            G# C
You can tell them what you want to

Fm
(Bones are crushing, palms are crushing)
        A#m
Pushin' me (Bodies touching, bodies touching)
       D#
Lovin' me (Heart is pumping, heart is pumping)
        G#
Pullin' me (Feelin' nothing, feelin' nothing)
C       Fm
Fuckin' me (Bones are crushing, palms are crushing)
         A#m
Crushin' me (Bodies touching, bodies touching)
               G#  C
Touchin' me, uh-ah

Chorus:
    Fm     A#m       D#
I'm done, I'm done, done doing backbends
    G#          C         Fm      A#m
I break and I snap, it's no fun, no fun
D#                   G#              C       Fm
Pushed myself into a box, while you held out a gun
A#m       D#          G#     C
I'm done, ah-ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Fm       A#m        D#          G#     C
I'm done, I'm done, ah-ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Twistin' all my bones like screws
Stretchin' my self-worth, just like you usually do
Caught you like the cold or a flu (Achoo!)
Praying that I'll someday be immune
Got me like a bad tattoo
Always under skin, even when it gets removed
Never got a chance to undo
Positions that you forced my way into

(Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Pushin' me
(Body's touching, body's touching) Lovin' me
(Blood is pumping, blood is pumping) Pullin' me
(Feelin' nothing, feelin' nothing) Fuckin' me
(Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Crushin' me
(Body's touching, body's touching) Touchin' me
Ow!

Chorus

(Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Pushin' me
(Body's touching, body's touching) Lovin' me
(Blood is pumping, blood is pumping) Pullin' me
(Feelin' nothing, feelin' nothing) Fuckin' me
(Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Crushin' me
(Body's touching, body's touching) Touchin' me
(Blood is pumping, blood is)
Ow!
