Lyrics

I left myself behind
On the edge of 29
I think I spent too much time sitting on my own
When I was turning 30
I was shivering and cold
It was the hottest summer I had ever known
Well I don't feel that much older
But I think my body's broken
And the songs I used to love
Well they just don't sound the same
And I'm trying to find a way
To not become someone I hate
But I'm filled with all this poison I can feel it
Feel it in my veins
It was mid-September
And I wasn't getting better
I thought maybe the pain would never leave
Arguments and tension
I was building up resentment
Couldn't understand what had become of me
Well I don't feel that much older
But I think my body's broken
And the songs I used to love
Well they just don't sound the same
And I'm trying to find a way
To not become someone I hate
But I'm filled with all this poison, I can feel it
Feel it in my veins
There's something wrong with me I just can't place it
It's at the back of my throat I can taste it
I'm not the man I was, no I replaced him
With something cynical and cold
Sitting in the waiting room on Halloween
They finally found the poison in my blood
One week later I was heading home again
They said that I was lucky it got caught
Well I know I'm getting older
And although I still feel broken
The storm's starting to pass
And I'm getting better every day
And I think I've found a way
To get back who I used to be
Cos I still feel the poison but it's fading
Fading from my veins
