Lyrics
Hearts On Parade
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Cut my hair, died it red cause you said it really turns you on
Dot my I's, crossed my legs, went to bed with all my makeup on
Read a book, every book that you put on your self righteous shelf
Lost my friends, lost some weight, like a fool I even lost myself
But I had to make you happy
And nothing makes you happy
If you let me go, if you let me go, if you let me stay, I can stay
You won't love me either way
Just a pawn, just a phase, the shangri la in your charade
If I tell you no, if I tell you no, if I run away, run away
You won't want me either way
It's just a part that I play
We're just hearts on parade
Saw a shrink, took a pill, tried to kill off what was left of me
Didn't ask, didn't tell, was a shell of who I used to be
I went numb, came undone, bit my tongue just like your mother does
Took the ring, took the blame, took the pain and did it all because
I had to make you happy
And nothing makes you happy
There's nothing, nothing left to see here
The streets are empty now
Baby, it's just, it's just me here
Trying to figure out
How to make you happy
If you let me go, if you let me go, if you let me stay, I can stay
You won't love me either way
Just a pawn, just a phase, the shangri la in your charade
If I tell you no, if I tell you no, if I run away, run away
You won't want me either way
It's just a part that I play
We're just hearts on parade
I tried to make you happy
But nothing makes you happy
