[Verse 1]
I sit two stories above the street
It's awful quiet here since love fell asleep
There's life down below me though
The kids are walking home from school
[Verse 2]
Some long ago when we were taught
That for whatever kind of puzzle you got
You just stick the right formula in
A solution for every fool
[Pre-Chorus]
I remember the time when I came so close to you
Sent me skipping my class and running from school
And I bought you that ring, 'cause I never was cool
[Chorus]
What makes me think I could start clean slated?
The hardest to learn was the least complicated (Yeah)
[Verse 3]
Oh, I just sit up in the house and resist
And not be seen until I cease to exist
A kind of conscientious objection (Ah)
A kind of dodging the draft
I sit two stories above the street
It's awful quiet here since love fell asleep
There's life down below me though
The kids are walking home from school

That for whatever kind of puzzle you got
You just stick the right formula in
A solution for every fool

And I bought you that ring, 'cause I never was cool

Oh, I just sit up in the house and resist
And not be seen until I cease to exist
