Left my keys in your old blue coat
Found your gum, yeah, the spearmint note
Every time that I try to go
I trip on something you forgot
You’re in the drawer with the takeout menus
On the mug with the cracked white glaze
I keep saying that I’m over you
Then you turn up in the strangest place
You’re my velcro heart, I peel you off
But you stick right back when I shake you off
Every little touch leaves another mark
Can’t get you gone from this velcro heart
You pull, I snap, we fall apart
But you snap right back on my velcro heart
New girl laughs at my broken phone
Spider cracks from the night you’re gone
Still your face in the background screen
Guess I like being in between
You’re in the song on the late-night station
In the tag of my sweater sleeve
I keep saying it was just a phase
But you hang on like you never leave
You’re my velcro heart, I peel you off
But you stick right back when I shake you off
Every little touch leaves another mark
Can’t get you gone from this velcro heart
You pull, I snap, we fall apart
But you snap right back on my velcro heart
Maybe I should let the edges fray
Stop trying to smooth you down
‘Cause every time I think you’re finally gone
You’re the echo in this empty house
You’re my velcro heart, I peel you off
But you stick right back when I shake you off
Every little touch leaves another mark
Can’t get you gone from this velcro heart
You pull, I snap, we fall apart
But you snap right back on my velcro heart
