lyrics

The problem as I see it
Is that we've already gone too far
to talk about dying young and
someone believe it.
I guess I'm stuck in the middle –
It's always the middle of the night…
I want this appetite.
I know better than to talk with my mouth full
of someone else's words when talking to you.
I guess we've already gone too far
to think about saving something for tomorrow.
To talk about splitting what we had together.
You left over the things I thought you wanted.
Now I want this appetite
and not much else.
I know better than to go back for more
when I haven't even finished what I had before.

It's always the middle of night…
Why won't this appetite
leave me alone?
I know better than to think I'm strong
when I've always given in just to get along.
I know better than to go to you
hoping that you know what I'm going through –
you've never been hungry for something you knew was wrong.
