lyrics

I'm going to lose some weight
I'm going to celebrate
I'm going to leave this pile of bones until they turn to clay
I'm going to wait too long
I'm going to break my phone
I'm going to wait to take a number til that number wrong
And what I used to be
A pile of mystery
Will be a self addressed letter stamped and sent to me
And i won't bother you
Won't even say hey
I'm going to leave with all the devil he don't take away

And the heart of things
Don't laugh at me
But I take things too hard

I'm going to labor on
I'm going to sell the farm
Why don't you leave your name and number when you hear the tone
I'm going to figure out what I'm supposed to say
Til then I'm going to lay and watch these stars until the turn to day

And the heart of things
Don't laugh at me
But I take things too hard

She'll wait too long

I take things way too hard
