Heart in a Locket

June was your best, we watched cotton candy skies
Downwards slope, did I bore you
Am I too much to handle, do you wanna drop the class
Does the workload overwhelm you?

I don't know what to say so I say nothing
Cause' you're only with me when the lights are off and were dripping in sweat

But you've got my heart in a locket on a ribbon around your neck
And I follow you around like a well trained dog that knows where it stands
You talk about the way you used to care for her back then
Is she your diamond and I'm a pearl not as shiny as her?
Cause' if so I'll detach my heart from yours so when you leave it won't go with you

You strung me along
Leaving bread crumbs as you go
To see if I would follow
And the funny is that you knew I would
You've always had the upper hand
Jumping through hoops left and right
Sit, stay and I abide

Cause' you've got my heart in a locket on a ribbon around your neck
And I follow you around like a well trained dog that knows where it stands
You talk about the way you used to care for her back then
Is she your diamond and I'm a pearl not as shiny as her?
Cause' if so I'll detach my heart from yours so when you leave it won't go with you

And I could try to run away on a treadmill just to say I tried
But say heel and like a magnet I'll stay by your side
Cause you've got my heart in a locket on a ribbon around your neck
And as long as you do I'm helpless to you

I'm helpless when it comes to you

Cause' you've got my heart in a locket on a ribbon around your neck
And I follow you around like a well trained dog that knows where it stands
You talk about the way you used to care for her back then
Is she your diamond and I'm a pearl not as shiny as her?
Cause' if so I'll detach my heart from yours so when you leave it won't go with you
