It could all collapse with a single hit
Like a sheet of glass and a little brick
Tied up with a note that says
You wanted this
I could never relate to the other girls
Telling lies to their guys in their perfect worlds
Set their hearts away until they look haunted
I hope I'm dreaming when I fear I'm the same
Look out behind me but there's no one to blame
I don't want to break down like this
While the others all pass me by
Too content with being safe and shy
Wait until I feel the kiss that seals my fate
As I rest my childish eyes
Will they ever understand the cries
When the streets are dead and the smoke is gone
Is it clear to see what's been going on
Looking for the part of me that dropped the bomb
Should I stay and wait for another one
Is it worth the pain or did I jump the gun
Rack my brain until another piece of my heart is gone
I hope I'm dreaming when I fear I'm the same
Look out behind me but there's no one to blame
Blot out my reasons and just trust how I feel
I don't know the future
But I'm hoping this is real
I don't want to break down like this
While the others all pass me by
Too content with being safe and shy
Wait until I feel the kiss that seals my fate
As I rest my childish eyes
Will they ever understand the cries
