Big Strong Man

Cavetown

My best friend fell in love with a girl, and I killed her
She lies by the tree in the graveyard where we built a swing in the summer
You looked at me like a stranger
You looked at me like someone you don't know
You looked at me like a lover
You looked at me like someone you couldn't let go
You couldn't let go

I never told him I liked him like that
Stuck straight through my heart and fell right out the back
He had me in his palm but I crumbled like sand
Did that make you feel like a big strong man?
Did that make you feel like a big strong man?
Did that make you feel like a big strong man?
Did that make you feel like a big strong man?

I couldn't move, but sometimes I still miss it
You felt it too, but I held your resistance
Lay in my room like I don't feel the distance
I always knew but I thought that I didn't
We're face to face on the floor of my kitchen
You won't shut up 'bout the girl you've been kissing
But you're holding my hand like you don't know the difference

I always knew but you told me I didn't
You always knew I'm not part of your plan
You loved somebody who never existed
Did that make you feel like a big strong man?

(I always knew, I always do)
Ah
(You loved somebody)
(Did that make you feel like a man?)

I never told him I liked him like that
Stuck straight through my heart and fell right out the back
He had me in his palm but I crumbled like sand (I always knew but you told me I didn't)
Did that make you feel like a big strong man? (You always knew I'm not part of your plan, I always knew)
Did that make you feel like a big strong man? (You loved somebody who never existed, I always do)
Did that make you feel like a big strong man? (Did that make you feel like a big strong man?, I always do)
Did that make you feel like a big strong man?
