Oh when the fear settles in
When absurdity grabs me by the hand
When my future's gone dim
When I thick has turned thin
Look away
And when I face turns spoilt
Just cause I won't do what I'm told
When I break like a child
Cause I won't get it all
Walk away
Please, don't tell me you understand
Cause what's a girl to do with such a good man
And please, don't tell me you understand
Cause what's a girl to do with such a good man
And when I say, I can't bear
Holding on to what will be taken away
When I'd rather let go
And pretend all is lost
Look away
And when my eyes sink deep
And I'd rather kill what I can't keep
When I beg for your pity
Cause I want you as low as I
Look away
Please, don't tell me you understand
Cause what's a girl to do with such a good man
And please, don't tell me you understand
