Okkervil River Happy Hearts Lyrics:
Why must happy hearts break so hard, leave you
curled up in the back seat of a car, staring up at
the windshield? When will broken hearts learn how
to heal? This boy I knew was five years older than

wheels? When will broken hearts learn how to heal?
And everybody's searching for a place to put

Unconditional love. Why did you leave me? Mother,
why do you sleep with him? He says he's
smothering, then he comes back again, in our house
for the weekend. Why must people's breaking
hearts pretend? Why must happy hearts break so
hard, leave you staring in the mirror at a bar?
Leave you talking to yourself, because you can't
talk to anybody
