Lyrics
Put my head into my hands
I'm gonna throw it away again
Take a drag off this joint
Somethin’ to say but I lost my point,
I'm too young to be diggin’ my grave
I guess I should change the way I behave
I leave the people and they leave me
When I leave the people they leave me be...
Because what matters to you doesn’t matter to me
and what mattered to you never mattered to me
and what shatters for you doesn't break for me
don't break for me, don't break for me,
Put my head into my hands
I'm gonna throw it away again
Take a drag off this joint
Had something to say but I lost my point
Because what matters to you doesn’t matter to me
and what mattered to you never mattered to me
and what shatters for you doesn't break for me
don't break for me, don't break for me
I was just a temporary necessary hook to hang your heart on
And so well you took to me like a baby that had never been held before
But you lost your grip and you slipped down to floor
You said your heart is breaking your knees are shakin'
What went wrong?
I can't believe the things you said to me
And I can't believe I feel so old.
