Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I empty the fridge
You empty the bottle
We're stackin' up a mountain
Of hard pills we'll have to swallow
It's strange how we point
Our flaws at one another
We both got different vices
And they lead us to each other
[Verse 2]
'Cause you over drink and I over eat
We're under thinking everything
And every night we swear it's gonna change
[Verse 3]
But in a perfect world
You get sober, I get skinny
We live off of more than pennies
Writing checks that we can cash
Keeping all our promises
We got faith, we got each other
We grow up and we get better
Things need fixin', we got plenty
When you get sober, I'll get skinny
When you get sober, I'll get skinny, yeah
[Verse 4]
Oh and, you want me to shrink
Well I think we should talk to one
Find a comfy couch and let out
All the hurt we've kept inside
Since we were young and so numb
Now we find ways to cover up
If we keep going how we're going
What will we become?
[Verse 5]
'Cause in a perfect world
You get sober, I get skinny
We live off of more than pennies
Writing checks that we can cash
Keeping all our promises
We got faith, we got each other
We grow up and we get better
Things need fixin', we got plenty
When you get sober, I'll get skinny, oh yeah
[Verse 6]
It's easy to imagine, imagine
All our problems disappear like magic, magic
[Verse 7]
But in an honest world
You're not sober, I'm not skinny
We're scraping by on borrowed pennies
Writing checks they'll never cash
Breaking all our promises
But we got faith, we got each other
Maybe we'll grow old together
Making up our happy ending
When you get sober, I'll get skinny
[Verse 8]
Oh, when you get sober, I'll get skinny
When you get sober, I'll get skinny, oh
When you get sober, I'll get skinny
[Verse 9]
It's easy to imagine
It's easy to imagine
