lyrics

I need to cut a new hole in my belt
To compensate for a shrinking waste of breath, which I have felt
realized to late I should have saved a little for myself

I sleep through the day in the middle of the week
'cause I'm up all night feeling guilty about the birthmark on your cheek
I apologize for acting stupid when I should for being weak

I miss the days where everything seemed to fit
It's all still there, but it feels different
I'm hoping all the things can be the way they were

I need to cut a new hole in my heart
To make some room, to accommodate you without falling apart
my belt's too long and I haven't slept, but I guess that it's a start.
