Blue jeans and misery / king of all my apathy / my mind’s running circles and falling to shards / my heart’s catching fireflies in the backyard / she says
“I will weigh you down” / “I will weigh you down”
And I burn the valentines / ‘Cause I know that they mean nothing / I wear all the same clothes / And I act like I’m a shut-in / I’m tired and I’m spent and I’m feeling alone / one of these nights won’t you pick up the phone / and call / and call
Work for money and fight for love / I guess we all gotta give one up / I’m too old to be running away / and I’m too young not to try it anyway / she says
“I will weigh you down” / “I will weigh you down”
And I burn the valentines / ‘Cause I know that they mean nothing / I wear all the same clothes / And I act like I’m a shut-in / I’m tired and I’m spent and I’m feeling alone / one of these nights won’t you pick up the phone / and call / and call
If you were in my heart for a while / my trepidation would go up in a wildfire
“I will weigh you down” / “I will weigh you down”
And I burn the valentines / ‘Cause I know that they mean nothing / I wear all the same clothes / And I act like I’m a shut-in / I’m tired and I’m spent and I’m feeling alone / one of these nights won’t you pick up the phone and call / and call
