[Verse 1]
I heard songs romanticise her blood shot eyes and getting high
They drift off on fitted sheets
He'll kiss her over colgate teeth
How can I love myself
When I'm so draining to everyone else?
And I've been told
I'm heavy to hold

[Chorus]
They say they won't run away
"Fix You" is only pretty when it's sung by Coldplay
They'll kiss me
Manic dream pixie
Don't wanna love me 'cause it feels too risky
And I understand
It's all I've been told
I'm heavy to hold

[Verse 2]
I hear cars pull up outside
Ring doorbells but they're never mine
Sitcoms on VHS
Laugh tracks echo the friends that left
How can I brave this storm
When I just burn them trying to keep warm?
It's all I've been told
I'm heavy to hold
[Chorus]
They say they won't run away
"Fix You" is only pretty when it's sung by Coldplay
They'll kiss me
Manic dream pixie
Don't wanna love me 'cause it feels too risky
And I understand
It's all I've been told
I'm heavy to hold

[Bridge]
Lay me down
I'm getting tired
I'll be around
If you decide
I'm hard to love
There's no denying
If you've had enough
Thanks for trying

[Chorus]
They say they won't run way (They won't run away)
"Fix You" is only pretty when it's sung by Coldplay
They'll kiss me manic dream pixie (They don't wanna, they don’t wanna love me)
Don't wanna love me 'cause it feels too risky
And I understand
It's all I've been told (I've been told)
I'm heavy to hold (Heavy to hold)
Too heavy to hold
I'm heavy
