You'd Be In Great Shape If You Ran Like Your Mouth Lyrics
Construct a better me you'll long to see
My parts have gone missing, scattered like debris
Across the world that I once called my home
(I once called my home)
Six feet deep, jealous of the world above
No longer wander the streets
No more talk of love
On bridges meant for better feet
I once thought I would do you proud
You run your mouth off
Do you think you're talking to me?
I can't sleep
When everything I ever believed
Was broken and stolen from me
(Stolen from me) (x2)
Conversing with new ghosts to replace me
I hope they cherish you
When they share your sheets
'Cause Lord knows that I would give my life
(I would give my life)
Believe me, giving up was easy
I try, but you can never see me
In your dreams, my memory lives on
Even when I'm gone
You run your mouth off
Do you think you're talking to me?
I can't sleep
When everything I ever believed
Was broken and stolen from me
(Stolen from me) (x2)
The more I look, I see an enemy
You'll never put your arms around this memory
I've charted your weakness
Your terror has ended
I'll rescue the pieces and mend all the damage
Well, did you think that it was gonna change?
Every name you burned and buried all along the way
Don't ask or tell
Who needs details?
When the lives you wreck
Are the lives that will prevail
You run your mouth off
Do you think you're talking to me?
I can't sleep
When everything I ever believed
Was broken and stolen from me
(Stolen from me) (x4)
My parts have gone missing, scattered like debris
Across the world that I once called my home
(I once called my home)
No longer wander the streets
No more talk of love
On bridges meant for better feet
I once thought I would do you proud
Do you think you're talking to me?
I can't sleep
When everything I ever believed
Was broken and stolen from me
(Stolen from me) (x2)
I hope they cherish you
When they share your sheets
'Cause Lord knows that I would give my life
(I would give my life)
I try, but you can never see me
In your dreams, my memory lives on
Even when I'm gone
Do you think you're talking to me?
I can't sleep
When everything I ever believed
Was broken and stolen from me
(Stolen from me) (x2)
You'll never put your arms around this memory
I've charted your weakness
Your terror has ended
I'll rescue the pieces and mend all the damage
Well, did you think that it was gonna change?
Every name you burned and buried all along the way
Don't ask or tell
Who needs details?
When the lives you wreck
Are the lives that will prevail
Do you think you're talking to me?
I can't sleep
When everything I ever believed
Was broken and stolen from me
(Stolen from me) (x4)

Both of the posted lyrics are all wrong. A lot of stuff is off from the CD cover jacket. Actually a lot of Just Surrender lyrics from the new album are wrong but I'm too lazy to type out the right ones from the CD jacket.
corrections (these aren't from the CD booklet, this is just what I hear, and I'm pretty sure they're correct:

i think its about being in a controlling relationship. whoever he is with controls everything in his life and he feels that its beyond his control. he wants to find a way to escape her but he doesn't know any other way to escape then to die :
"Conversing with new ghosts to replace me I hope they cherish you when they share your sheets Cause Lord knows that I would give my life (I would give my life)"
he has already killed himself..this song is from the perspective of him as a ghost imo
