Chorus:They've got this p[G]lace
Where they've been[Em] keeping me
Wher[/F#]e I can'[G]t hurt myself
I can't get my [Em]wrists to bleed
Just don't know[D] why, S[D/C]uicide appeals t[B]o me
The Quiet[G] Room, Is ste[Em]rilized and white
It's[/F#] like [G]a tomb, With just a

Chorus:This quiet place
It ain't so new to me
It's haunted atmosphere
Has heard so many scream
My home from home
My twilight zone
My strangest dream
My confidant,I have confessed my life
The Quiet Room
Knows more about me than my wife
They've got this place
Where they've been keeping me
Where I can't hurt myself, I just can't
I just can't get these damn wrists to bleed
[D] A mattres[A/D]s on the[D] floo[A/D]r
[D/F#] No handl[A/C#]es on th[Bm]e doo[D/A]r
I really need[G] nothing here
Em Em7,D A/D D
I'm alone
