Carve Me Out

Chewing off the pieces again

what if we laid down

and left our problems in the mud?

can’t get the stain out

we got some dirt we can’t rub off

she said let’s move past it

but I needed to know

was he better than me?

we’re not the same people

that we were years ago

but it’s stuck to my teeth

we’ll keep doing this till it’s over

what have we got now?

is it plaster

that you’re after?

shaping me

in your hands

I’m chewing off the pieces again

I’m chewing off the pieces again and again

I’m chewing off the pieces

while you carve me out

got me so burnt out

that I’ve stopped listening to my gut

but it’s only waist down

because the heart wants what it wants

she said that I’m reckless

but I swear that I’ve grown

and I'm lying through my teeth

we’re not the same people

that we were years ago

but it’s hard to believe

that we’ll keep doing this till it’s over

what have we got now

is it plaster

that you’re after

shaping me in your hands

I’m chewing off the pieces again

I’m chewing off the pieces again and again

I’m chewing off the pieces

while you carve me out

I’m chewing off the pieces again

I’m chewing off the pieces again and again

I’m chewing off the pieces

while you carve me out

we’re on this road to hell

while you carve me out
