I'll eat it all if I'm allowed to breathe Things don't fall apart, they just give up on being what they are I'm a war, I'm a war, I'm a war, I'm a war, I'm a war and... Things don't fall apart, they just give up on being what they are I'm a home, I'm a home, I'm a home, I'm a home, I'm a home and... Things don't fall apart, they just give up on being what they are I'm a girl, I'm a girl, I'm a girl, I'm a girl, I'm a girl and... Someday I wanna be shrunk down so teeny We see each other as proteins, baby Wouldn't that be neat?
