Polly Scattergood - I've Got a Heart

How do you come home
When you know his things are gone?
How do you walk in the door
And then just move on?
What a waste of years
What a waste of time
What an inconsiderate way
To just waste what's mine

Well you know I've got a heart
I think it's bigger than yours
Because it lets people in
Who constantly disappoint me
And I've got a soul
And it's as sad as they come
Because it used to feel everything
And now it's just numb numb numb

I sit and peel paint off the wall
I'll sit until I've got it all
Reveal the flowers that were underneath it
And then well, I might just drink the day away
I might think about what I would say
If I saw you ten years from now

I'd say, well I've got a heart
I think it's bigger than yours
Because it lets people in
Who constantly disappoint me
And I've got a soul
And it's as sad as they come
Because it used to feel everything
And now it's just numb numb numb

The doctor gave me pills to take
To stop me feeling quite so awake
To take the edge off of this big black cloud
But now it is quarter to ten
I'll sit with a paper and a pen
Just writing shit until I fall asleep

I've got a heart
I think it's bigger than yours
Because it lets people in
Who constantly disappoint me
And I've got a soul
And it's as sad as they come
Because it used to feel everything
And now it's just numb numb numb
