I made everything come undone
I made everything fall apart
I quit running to the finishing line
And I went back to the start
I found a great, big hole in the middle of my life
Shaped just like my heart, just like my heart
I lost sight of what was under my feet
'Cause I always had to be on top
And I was so drunk on love
That I didn't taste a single drop
And I used to make everything run on time
'Til I made the whole world stop, I made it stop
Now I'm watching the world move in slow motion
Now I'm finding it easy to breathe
For too long I've been trying to walk
In high heels through a river of mud
For too long I've been trying to talk
Over the sound of rushing blood
Where truth is a story scribbled in chalk
Just an hour before the flood, before the flood
Now I'm watching the world move in slow motion
Now I'm finding it easy to breathe
I made everything come undone
I made everything fall apart
I quit running to the finishing line
And I went back to the start
I found a great, big hole in the middle of my life
Shaped just like my heart, just like my heart
Just like my heart...
