I'm your dolly
Stuffed with extra baggage
Lay me down to shut my eyes
Beaded gazes
Lead you nowhere anyways
Press on my heart, I will say
Press on my heart I will say
I am lonely
With a static smile
I think my stitching's coming loose
I'm hard headed,
But completely soft inside
I'm all wound up and still
The only thing that I can say is
I don't need you anyway
I don't need you, go home
Go home
I don't need you anyway
I don't need you, go home
Go home
I'm your dolly
Stuffed with extra baggage
Lay me down to shut my eyes
Beaded gazes
Lead you nowhere anyways
Press on my heart, I will say
Press on my heart I will say
I don't need you anyway
I don't need you, go home
Go home
I don't need you anyway
I don't need you, go home
Go home
Go home
Go home
Go home
Go home
Go home
Stuffed with extra baggage
Lay me down to shut my eyes
Beaded gazes

Press on my heart, I will say
Press on my heart I will say

This song is about letting go and staying strong, life goes on and keep moving on...
Call me stupid but I just realized this. The ENTIRE song is metaphorical to the first line: "I'm your dolly."... incase you didn't realize that.
"Press on my heart, I will say" - the buttons inside a doll you press. "I'm hard headed, But completely soft inside" - plastic head, soft stuffing. etc, etc...
@FCP17 Yep, and continuing the metaphor its about being used and tossed aside, like a toy would be. I think dolly may have a double meaning as well, as in dolly like a suitcase based on the 'stuffed with extra baggage' bit. It's a clever way to say emotional baggage while sticking with the neglected toy metaphor.
