I don't have to hear it, if I don't want to I can drown this out, pull the curtains down on you It's a heavy world, it's too much for me to care If I close my eyes, it's not there With my headphones on, with my headphones on With my headphones on, with my headphones on We watch television...but the sound is something else Just a song played against the drama, so the hurt is never felt I take in the war-fires, and I'm chilled by the current events It's so hopeless, but there's a pop song in my Headphones on, in my headphones on With my headphones on, with my headphones on At the Tube Stop, you sit down across from me (I can see you looking back at me) I think I know you By the sad eyes that I see I want to tell you (It's a heavy world) Everything will be okay You wouldn't hear it (I don't want to have to hear it) So we go our separate ways... With our headphones on, with our headphones on With our headphones on, with our headphones on I don't wanna be the one who tries to figure it out I don't need another reason I should care about you You don't want to know my story You don't want to own my pain Living in a heavy, heavy world And there's a pop song in my head I don't want to have to hear it
