i gave myself a year to put on and off the weight
my shoulders hurt my buttons break
now I've fucked my way through the maze of my pain
lost in overgrown hedges, the fog clouds up your name
i ran home to michigan to surround myself with friends
a dark room in a cold house in a snow covered hell
where i drag myself home and eat til I'm sick
watch tv alone until my heart starts to rip
can we go back to when we were just kids having sex on the floor of whatever room we were in
now theres a 100 fucking songs ill never listen to again and a lifetime spent thinking "remember when"
a change of address to a "town called hate" (1)
where broken hearted men ponder "too little too late" (2)
i daydream of dying, i want my death to haunt your dreams
paint my face across a white wall, red mixed into your tears
baby bury me in your room, feel my heart beat in your sleep
I'm the warm side of the pillow, turn it over and be rid of me
standing in front of you for once without fear
run my fingers through your hair and whisper in your ear
"the seeds of love have taken hold
if we don't burn together i'll burn alone" (3)
