ORIGINAL LYRICS

These are the original lyrics to Virtual Hearbreak. I cut the song down in order to spare everyone a Pink Floyd rendition of Heartbreak.


VIRTUAL HEARTBREAK ©2010

Music and Lyrics by Mary Schook

Randomly you came to me from out of the blue. 
You spoke of peace, and love, and Buddha too.
You said your love was all you had to give.
On love alone is all I need to live.

Refrain: Oh you're not paying rent to stay inside my head.
You're not paying rent to stay inside my head.

Our love was doomed from the very start. 
Despite my past you were careless with my heart.
You stole my heart. You saw no crime. 
You made me believe the burden of guilt was all mine.

Refrain: Oh you're not paying rent to stay inside my head.
You're not paying rent to stay inside my head.

You said I was the only woman in your life,
but then I found out you still had a wife.
You even wanted me to move to France with you.
But now c’est fini. C’est non plus.

Refrain: Oh you're not paying rent to stay inside my head.
You're not paying rent to stay inside my head.

Now that I’ve caught you in the biggest lie.
There must be others. You can’t deny. 
It pains me to think about you this way, but
I sometimes wonder if I was just your prey.

Refrain: Oh you're not paying rent to stay inside my head.
You're not paying rent to stay inside my head.  

After you ended it an astrologer approached me that night. 
She said take heed. You never loved me right. 
I can’t believe all this time I was so dumb. 
I should have stayed my life’s path: single and numb. 

Refrain: Oh you're not paying rent to stay inside my head.
You're not paying rent to stay inside my head.

My love for you was so pure, so true.
You couldn’t be honest, Shame on you.
You never knew who you were dealing with in the end. 
If you were honest from the start we’d still have a chance to be friends.

Refrain: Oh you're not paying rent to stay inside my head.
You're not paying rent to stay inside my head.

I miss the talks, our dreams, the poetry, 
but most of all I’ll miss someone understanding me.
No one understands a love for someone you’ve never met. 
No one understands love without the flesh.

Refrain: Oh you're not paying rent to stay inside my head.
You're not paying rent to stay inside my head.

This is the first and last song I will ever do. 
I’m just not a fab music composer like you. 
I hope that this song is a worldwide hit. 
‘cause time hasn’t healed me the slightest bit.

Refrain: Oh you're not paying rent to stay inside my head.
You're not paying rent to stay inside my head.
