Wrap my lungs around my throat
And beat my heart into your own
I'll pump you through the next few years
If only I had kissed you then
I'll sever ties, I'll cut a line across the sky
And the blue bleed through the clouds
I'll shut these eyes, and lock away my snide remarks
I need you to feel this, too.

If simple is as simple does
You'll find me on the next train to the city
You can't escape what you can't relate to,
Half-court romance fails at the pinpoint.

I can't bind my legs together, anymore
I need to be running to you
My nurture, this influence that I've bartered
From you, will be your downfall
Weakness comes from the stomach
As you vomit up your disease
I hope you miss me when you're
Hospital ridden and dead to the likes of me.

Can you tell me exactly what I want to hear?
(I've been waiting for a long time, long time)
Can you promise me that it will be better next year?
(I've been waiting for a long time, long time)
