Heavy Heart

Get dolled up for the reunion

You'll be one of the girls who has aged like wine

You'll fret and fuss to get ready

But you need to know that the years have been kind

The nagging voice in the darkness

It's like your so-called friend that has stayed too long

Don't let it whisper too loudly

It threatens your nerve, it smothers your song

Don't let your heavy heart drag you down

The deafening din of the static

It's like all that they built has been falling apart

It creeps in like and informant

It gnaws at your time and weighs on your heart

The loneliness in the kitchen

I know her ghosts come 'round 'cause they haunt me too

Don't second-guess your potential

'Cause there's a heart of gold that she left there in you

Don't let your heavy heart drag you down

I know these last few years have made you feel so tired

When disenchantment swells it gets so hard to hide
