verse 1 Sugar coated empathy All the shit you're expecting from me Your little California dream Is distracted and rarely seen Pre-Chorus I'm beaten up by hours Dialogue's gotten sour Yesterday's promises are running free This love we're feeding's got so hungry I can't pay the bills with nothing I'm carving out my heart You believe it's so dead simple I can't figure out the riddle It's carving out my heart Carving out my heart verse 2 I don't wanna mess you up It's a shame you'd love me No matter what This love, it used to be so clean Now we're swimming in a pool of caffeine Pre-Chorus My words are tasting so bitter And I can't deliver Yesterdays promises are all running free This love we're feeding's got so hungry I can't pay the bills with nothing I'm carving out my heart You believe it's so dead simple I can't figure out the riddle It's carving out my heart I'm carving out my heart Interlude (x2) Pre-Chorus My words are tasting so bitter And I can't deliver Yesterdays promises are all running free This love we're feeding's got so hungry I can't pay the bills with nothing I'm carving out my heart You believe it's so dead simple I can't figure out the riddle It's carving out my heart This love we're feeding's got so hungry I can't pay the bills with nothing I'm carving out my heart I'm carving out my heart I'm carving out my heart
