She was dancing, she was smiling Roses blooming on her cheeks In a quiet kind of litany she accepted some defeat And then she twirled into the arms Of disgrace and then repelled Now she's fallen to her knees But you couldn't ever tell
And then she asks me how we got here I told her I don't know And if you keep on asking I'll just keep saying so This isn't what I wanted It isn't what you need Oh, let them keep on talking Just calm yourself and breathe
Just calm yourself and breathe
Where the burdens of her mother Weigh like sandbags on the eyes As she closes just to open as the sirens whirling by And now she's off to tell a secret To a friend somewhere in town And her friend just takes a moment And asks why I'm not around
Darling, this is something I should've told you long ago I just want you to feel safe I just want to make you glow Oh, how you glowed when we were young And with nothing on our minds But each other, one another and we had nothing then but time
And then she asks me how we got here I told her I don't know And if you keep on asking I'll just keep saying so This isn't what I wanted It isn't what you need Oh, let them keep on talking Just calm yourself and breathe
Don't you pay them any mind You know this happens every time Why don't you let me play your mind?
Why do we have to go through this everytime
Some days you hear it Some days you don't Sometimes you feel it Sometimes you won't
Just calm yourself and breathe
Don't you pay them any mind Don't you pay them any mind You know this happens every time Why don't you let me play your mind?
Don't you pay them any mind Don't you pay them any mind You know this happens every time Why don't you let me play your mind?
