It Doesn't Matter To Him Lyrics - Pale Green Ghosts - John Grant

If I think about it, I am successful as it were 

I get to sing for lovely people all over this lovely world 

And I am nowhere near as awkward as I was when I was younger 

I guess I'm one of those guys who gets better looking as they age 

And even though I have been beaten down by constant doubt, 

The pressure and confusion brought about by people's actions, death, and tax forms 

I keep getting up and I am loved by all my friends and family 

Though there have been lots of raised eyebrows 

Hints and glances lately 

It doesn't matter to him 

I could be anything 

But I could never win his heart again 

It doesn't matter to him 

He took away my AAA pass 

I am invisible to him 

And now I feel the soft, pink flesh of my heart hardening 

To the countless possibilities contained within each day 

Vulnerability feels like a cold, wet concrete room lit with fluorescent light 

Which, as you know, makes everything look bad 

I still keep trying to figure out how I became irrelevant 

How I got myself evicted from his heart from one day to the next 

And the worst part is that even if I got an answer right now 

It would not change anything because we have become two strangers 

[Repeat x2] 

It doesn't matter to him 

I could be anything 

But I could never win his heart again 

It doesn't matter to him 

He took away my AAA pass 

I am invisible to him
