You won't learn a lot about people,
If you only ever push them away,
You climb over bodies to get what you want,
But their ghosts will come back some day.
But then what will you do for comfort,
Tell me, what will you do for fun,
When you count the people that truly love you,
And you only get as far as one?
And it isn't even you.
Swings and roundabouts,
Nickels and dimes,
Safety in numbers,
Nursery rhymes.
I had a dream about how it would seem,
To be broken apart on the wheel,
The faces around me were all indistinct,
But the pain was incredibly real.
The evening star burned bright as the sun,
But the morning sky was grey and cold,
And I couldn't bear to look into the mirror,
So scared that I might have grown old.
Although I needed to know.
