my heart's up on blocks on the side of the road/and my front spokes broke from the weight of that load in/and/i'm falling through the earth/and i'm gonna get hurt.
with this pin backed button on my shirt/somebody's teeth in the summer dirt (they're mine but i have a concussion so it's hard to grasp)/and i'm never going back to work again.
chorus:
with my heart up on blocks/and my window latches locked/i can't talk to my friends/they think it's better in the end/but i don't think that they understand...
verse:
my heart's up on blocks on the side of the road/and my head's a sky rise that's rigged to implode/and fall into itself/i don't want nobody else.
with your golden hair and your floral shirt/and your summer legs in your summer skirt/ i'm never going back to work again.
chorus:
with my heart up on blocks/and my window latches locked/i can't talk to my friends/they think it's better in the end/but i don't think that they understand...
that i need to be your man/yeah, i need to be your man.
