Heartworms

Intro La la la la la verse 1 Well I guess I'm just here to test your patience Cause you're so smart my tricks don't work at all Is it my lack of education? Just tell me why you never call verse 2 Behind your symmetry lies a fundamental difference There are those who own their minds and those who crawl No offense but, in between the lines I'm reading You look out for your own, and you ain't gonna look at me that way Pre-Chorus And it's true So what can I do? Anything to get some of your affection (What can I do?) Maybe impress you with a song (What can I do?) I'm trying to minimize the damage done cause there ain't no one like you Break verse 3 I found that postcard from that trip you took to Thailand I remember studying all the words writ in your pretty hand The little lines the little curves held a sacred meaning Or so I thought, but I had it wrong verse 4 Now I'm trying to figure out when it was you gave me these heartworms I feel them wriggling in my blood, you gonna do me harm Right now I'd rather lose this losing feeling That came on when you cooled off Started treating me in this friendly way Pre-Chorus And it's true So what can I do? Oh won't you be still for a moment (What can I do?) So I can push a feather through your heart (What can I do?) I'm trying to minimize the damage done cause there ain't no one like you So what can I do? When I get lonely to distraction (What can I do?) Maybe impress you with a song (What can I do?) No easy way aound it You're the saddest dream that ever came true Outro La la la la La la la la la
