Love Makes You Fat

You came over yesterday
Wanted to "talk"
Then left with all my money
Love conquers all

It's turned me into
Someone I don't recognize
Someone small
Lately, I can't separate my hands
From this chain link fence

An act of kindness (shrapnel)
A desperate moment (landmine)
I'll take your handout (Dear John)
I'll take your life
My brain can't calculate the odds

Black hole apartment (gas can)
Sex once a week

A constant argument
Where have we been?
And where are we now?
What if the person that you care for
Doesn't care for anything anymore?
Locked into a codependent timeshare, you can't pay for

Eating, streaming, staying up
Fighting, lying, making up

You call and the first thing that you say is "let's order out"
I know there's a person in there somewhere
Will anything ever feel new?
Love and joy and strength and peace
Can you take these things and bury them next to me
