[Verse 1]
Picked up a chestnut while I was on my way home
It wasn't pretty, no, it was dusty and old
And I swear it looked better before I picked it up
I should’ve just left it there in the park
But nostalgia hit me and I couldn't resist it
[Verse 2]
Then out of boredom I tossed it around
It didn't take long before it fell to the ground
Didn’t bother me at first and I just walked away
While the chestnut was destined to stay
[Chorus]
But something was triggered in my mind
And I know this is weird
But I almost started to cry
Over a chestnut
[Verse 3]
As I kept going I thought to myself
Like, what the fuck is wrong with me?
As far as I can tell it's about great expectations
Then being disappointed and returning to indifference right away
And I'm tired of raising these high expectations
[Chorus]
I don't know if I'm twisted in my mind
And I know this is weird
But I almost started to cry
Over a chestnut
[Bridge]
But how to change this, I just don't understand
It's not like there's some kind of button for that
I feel incomplete but I don’t really mind
I keep it out of my thoughts most of the time
[Chorus]
Until something is triggered in my mind
And I know this is weird
But I almost started to cry
Oh I almost started to cry
Over a chestnut
Picked up a chestnut while I was on my way home
It wasn't pretty, no, it was dusty and old
And I swear it looked better before I picked it up
I should’ve just left it there in the park
But nostalgia hit me and I couldn't resist it
[Verse 2]
Then out of boredom I tossed it around
It didn't take long before it fell to the ground
Didn’t bother me at first and I just walked away
While the chestnut was destined to stay
[Chorus]
But something was triggered in my mind
And I know this is weird
But I almost started to cry
Over a chestnut
[Verse 3]
As I kept going I thought to myself
Like, what the fuck is wrong with me?
As far as I can tell it's about great expectations
Then being disappointed and returning to indifference right away
And I'm tired of raising these high expectations
[Chorus]
I don't know if I'm twisted in my mind
And I know this is weird
But I almost started to cry
Over a chestnut
[Bridge]
But how to change this, I just don't understand
It's not like there's some kind of button for that
I feel incomplete but I don’t really mind
I keep it out of my thoughts most of the time
[Chorus]
Until something is triggered in my mind
And I know this is weird
But I almost started to cry
Oh I almost started to cry
Over a chestnut
