[Verse 1]
The snake eats itself and there's a word for it
I got a lump in my throat, you won't have heard of it
[Pre-Chorus]
Selfish is my middle name
And I've done my best to postpone the game
Soon I will opt in
Soon I will opt in
[Chorus]
I've been a heartbeat behind
For most of my life
I've been a heartbeat behind
I've been a heartbeat behind
For most of my life
I've been a heartbeat behind
[Verse 2]
The lights are on but nobody's home
Be quiet while my heart's on the phone
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I made such hard work of getting you
Love became a hobby too
I'm in no way badly done to
After all, I have you
[Chorus]
