    Well, you 
    live 
    out 
    Verse 1
    where the 
    street 
    ends 

    In a 
    basement 
    apart
    ment 
    with 

    one 
    of your 
    friends 

    And the 
    tap 
    drips 
    all 
    night 

    Water 
    tor
    ture 
    in 
    the sink 

    The 
    furnace 
    is 
    burn
    ing 

    But 
    it's still 
    cold 
    I 
    think 

    Verse 2


    And 
    I can 
    smell 
    the 
    bleach 

    That they 
    use 
    in the 
    hall 

    But 
    it can
    't 
    clean 
    the 
    dirt 
    off 
    of me 

    It's 
    seeping 
    under 
    the 
    door 

    In 
    across 
    the 
    floor 

    It's 
    starting 
    to 
    hurt 

    Verse 3
    Every 
    time 
    I 
    breathe 

    Every 
    time I 
    try 
    to 
    leave 

    Every 
    time 
    I 
    breathe 

    Verse 4
    Now the 
    toaster 
    sticks 

    And the 
    empties 
    are piled 

    I 
    haven't 
    been up 
    the stairs 
    in 
    a while 
    now 

    I 
    gotta 
    wash 
    the sheet
    s 
    on my 
    bed 

    I 
    gotta 
    watch 
    those 
    thing
    s that 
    go 
    unsaid 

    God 
    I wish 
    we'd 
    leave 
    it at 
    this 


    Verse 5
    Every 
    time 
    I 
    breathe 

    Every 
    time I 
    try 
    to 
    leave 

    Every 
    time 
    I 
    breathe 

    Verse 6
    And every 
    evening, 

    you 
    open 
    the 
    door 

    You come 
    down 

    There's 
    nothing 
    like 
    watching 

    TV 
    all 
    night 
    underground 

    And 
    no 
    one 
    is 
    watch

    ing 
    me 
    slide 

    Below 
    street 
    level 

    Interlude 1
    Barely 
    alive 





    Verse 7
    Well 
    now 
    we 
    live 
    out 

    where the 
    street 
    ends 

    In the 
    basement 
    apartment 

    just 
    like 
    our friends 

    We 
    always 
    said 
    that we 

    were 
    differ
    ent 

    But you 
    know now 
    that 
    we 

    wer
    en't 

    'Cause there's 
    holes 
    in 
    all 
    the bottles 

    And 
    my 
    lungs 
    hurt 

    Verse 8
    Every 
    time 
    I 
    breathe 

    Every 
    time I 
    try 
    to 
    leave 

    Every 
    time 
    I 
    breathe

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
