This heart condition that you have
is not all its cracked up to be
Its not bringing you
the attention that you think it ought to be
And let us for a moment
imagine that this you I'm speaking of is me

I am worrying that I am falling down
and this time is different
My heart has finally stopped beating
and the world has revealed itself

But I am winning an imaginary race
that ends in nowhere
My heart condition's just acting up
as I proceed with plans to get there

Skeletons are underneath the floorboards
in the boxes that I forgot
The killer is still on the loose
I hope they catch 'em fast before he stops my heart

But I am winning an imaginary race
that ends in nowhere
My heart condition's just acting up
as I proceed with plans to get there

Motionless I wake up face down,
drowning in my bed like a shallow pool
Air is trapped with words
I never had the chance to say in elementary school

And I am winning an imaginary race
that ends in nowhere
My heart condition's just acting up
as I proceed with plans to get there
