She don't see his roving eye
It never roves when it's on her
Her friends all look the other way
And get together to confer
Someday he might spin around
To find his only one

I tightened all the knots 'till they were strong
And gave away the heart where I belong
I tightened all the knots now they're too strong
I wish they would break

She don't notice that he greets
Some objects like they have no end
He's walking tall and acting smart
To all of his uneasy friends
He might put that aura down
When it's no longer fun

I tightened all the knots 'till they were strong
And gave away the heart where I belong
I tightened all the knots now they're too strong
I wish they would break

Lonely's such a big mistake
If it's the only one you ever make
Lonely's just a big mistake

I tightened all the knots 'till they were strong
And gave away the heart where I belong
I tightened all the knots now they're too strong
I wish they would break
