| I don’t have to hear it, if I don’t want to
|
| I can drown this out, pull the curtains down on you
|
| It’s a heavy world, it’s too much for me to care
|
| If I close my eyes, it’s not there
|
| With my headphones on, with my headphones on
|
| With my headphones on, with my headphones on
|
| We watch television… but the sound is something else
|
| Just a song played against the drama, so the hurt is never felt
|
| I take in the war-fires, and I’m chilled by the current events
|
| It’s so hopeless, but there’s a pop song in my
|
| Heaphones on, in my headphones on
|
| With my headphones on, with my headphones on
|
| At the Tube Stop, you sit down across from me
|
| (I can see you looking back at me)
|
| I think I know you
|
| By the sad eyes that I see
|
| I want to tell you (It's a heavy world)
|
| Everything will be okay
|
| You wouldn’t hear it (I don’t want to have to hear it)
|
| So we go our separate ways…
|
| With our headphones on, with our headphones on
|
| With our headphones on, with our headphones on
|
| I don’t wanna be the one who tries to figure it out
|
| I don’t need another reason I should care about you
|
| You don’t want to know my story
|
| You don’t want to own my pain
|
| Living in a heavy, heavy world
|
| And there’s a pop song in my head
|
| I don’t want to have to hear it |
