Oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh
I was higher
than a biplane
Then you hit me
like a hurricane
I bailed out
hit the ground Washed up
in a storm drain
Stumbled up the driveway
With a handshake
and a slow wave
Now I'm crashed out
on the couch
Wondering if you feel the same
'Cause you're in my brain
taking up space I need
For remembering pins and
to take out the bins
And that one particular film
that that actor was in
I see your face
superimposed over everything
It ain't right
'Cause I was fine
on my own
Tolling steady
like a dial tone
Couldn't you leave me
I was happy unhappy
But now I'm overthrown
Wish my heart
were really made of stone
And I could forget you
Like I really want to
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh
I was living
with your spare change
In the pocket
of your cutaways
And I get so spent
Waiting on your lunch break
Broke every window pane
So I can feel
the cold rain
When I lie in bed
catching death
Trying to wash it all away
'Cause you're in my brain
taking up space I need
For delivering lies
and suppressing the sighs
And for navigating escape
when I get lost in your eyes
It's taking up all of my time
just to keep it in line
It ain't right
'Cause I was fine
on my own
Tolling steady
like a dial tone
Couldn't you leave me
I was happy unhappy
But now I'm overthrown
Wish my heart
were really made of stone
And I could forget you
Like I really want to
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh oh-oh-oh
I was fine
on my own
Tolling steady
like a dial tone
Couldn't you leave me
I was happy unhappy
But now I'm overthrown
Wish my heart
were really made of stone
And I could forget you
Like I really want to
I could forget you
I could forget you
I could forget you
