Calloused Fingers Won't Make You Strong, Edith Wong

a studio apartment somewhere new
somewhere far away from here
it doesnt feel
are you lonesome

now you've got first share
a broken heart wont mend
youre jealous of your only friend
it doesnt matter what theyre paying you
you just want

when youre sitting in the spotlight
a standing ovation every night
does it occur to you
that something isnt right

when youre kissing someone new
but you know your hearts not through
the last boy
do you say to yourself 'this will do'

you can hide in the cinema
you've got the money to spend
but the movies always end
then its your life again

you can practice all day long
till the notes are perfect
but your hearts all wrong
calloused fingers wont make you strong
