lyrics

i will never be the one to hold your empty heart and make it full
and you will never see it through to change that and to try would be a fool
i, wall as i am, have made my mind up and i know where it makes me stand
you will have to settle for a medal made of plastic that crumbles in your hand

but that doesn't mean i don't care how you're doing all the time
i still wish you better travels and greater stays
my heartbeat doesn't crack my chest open when i think about you
doesn't mean that i don't count the days

i hoist my flag atop a hill of many grays and violets
and if you dig a hole so deep enough, you'll find something inside it
a living space of many little feelings, stoned and watching tv
just because i don't feel love doesn't mean nothing is inside of me

and that...
