lyrics

we go out to dinner and sit down at the table
there's two of us but my feet touch the ground
and i know i'm alone
waiting for death while the guilt burns a pit in my stomach

i say "fuck it"
between bites "i've been cheating on you"
i say "sorry" you say "what"
and in that moment i learn never to trust my gut

i black out the next part we end up in the park
sitting by the water while my life falls apart as expected
but i said it and now i know you're leaving

three years later i drink coffee at home
i'm not nearly as stupid and no longer alone
but i still sit and think on it
about just how low i know i can go

because now i know, because i ate
i am the knife that cuts the cake
because even now i am afraid
that the hunger will betray me again

that i won't win
