Strum strum add a finger and thumb
Will you please get me a counterfeit
I've lost the real one and I nail-bite
And wait until the metal hits wood right

Heartstrings and the pain they can bring
Well I double up on banjo and I
Stamp and I sing to my heartbeat
And hope that it is gonna come good,see
------------------------------------
Messing with tired emotions
Trying to chip at the wall
Wasting my time and motion on it all
-------------------------------------
La la and I'm covered in tar
Well you want to know the story?
I'll tell you in the car
It's all really because I didn't say
What I needed

Ring ring,it's an ear-treat thing
Just to open up the windows
Hear the cathedral sing on a Sunday
You lived up at the top of that stairway
-----------------------------------

Wasting your tired emotions
Trying to chip at the wall
Wasting your time and motion on it all
