  • No one's picking up the phone
    Guess it's me and me
    And this little masochist
    She's ready to confess
    All the things that I never thought
    That she could feel and

    Hey Jupiter
    Nothing's been the same
    So are you gay
    Are you blue
    Thought we both could use a friend
    To run to
    And I wouldn't have to be with you
    As something new

    Sometimes I breathe you in
    And I know you know
    And sometimes you take a swim
    Found your writing on my wall
    If my heart's soaking wet
    Boy your boots can leave a mess

    Hey Jupiter
    Nothings been the same
    So are you gay
    Are you blue
    Thought we both could use a friend
    To run to
    And I thought you wouldn't have to keep
    With me
    Hiding

    Thought I knew myself so well
    All the dolls I had
    Took my leather off the shelf
    Your apocalypse was fab
    For a girl who couldn't choose between
    The shower or the bath

    And I thought I wouldn't have to be
    With you
    A magazine

    No one's picking up the phone
    Guess it's clear he's gone
    And this little masochist
    Is lifting up her dress
    Guess I thought I could never feel
    The things I feel
    Hey Jupiter, nothing's been the same

    So are you gay
    Are you blue
    Thought we both could use a friend
    To run to
    Hey Jupiter, nothing's been the same
    So are you sane, now we're through
    Thought we both could use a friend
