when was the last time you considered jumping off a bridge?
or falling face first into a rive and staying there
or "borrowing" the parents medication and taking it all at once?
or getting one of the sharp kitchen knives
or walking out onto a freeway
or swerving the car into a tree

my dreams have me running scared
you are my hopeless nightmare
i dont believe in you
yet your every where i look

write me a melody
i have your song
this place is going down
and your on your own

hide behind a shield of lies
pain the flowers red and white
trace the scares of yesterday
draw the fears of sour sweets

every second i think its you
you always were one for surprises
today i looked through the glass
and saw it wasnt true

im writing you this silly song
to let you know im onto you
who need a hook when youve reeled me in
a poets lie just to begin

break my heart and hope to die
forever the flames of childrens eyes
a singers words straight to the heart
a tutu made from disaster

how do you exaplin whats lame
how do you trust the pain
tomorrow is another day
a world away we say goodbye

someplace somewhere we hold hands
a moment forgotten is the haze
the plan said we would be safe
drink to a life beyond fate
