Girls Lyrics

when you're alone, there is no one to pull you under.
when you're along, there is no one to break your fall.
when there is nothing left for them to plunder,
they leave without a whisper.
they leave without a glance
because you have nothing in your hands
to make them want to glance your way.

when you're alone, there is no one to keep you caged in.
when you're alone, there is no one to keep you warm.
and if you try to keep all of the rage in,
it breeds a world of anger.
it breeds a world of pain
till you surrender, half insane,
half wishing you could start again.

i've seen the mortal danger.
i've seen it hide away.
it's buried treasure just in case.
and no one ever looked your way.

i've seen the mortal danger.
it breathes. it is my friend.
it is my savior. my mistake.
the one thing i refuse to fake.
