Please don't touch me I've come to far to let you bring me down He's thinks that I'm easy But try as you might you can't have me now These tedious dances We run through but I've memorized them now I quietly melt down Ad consent to you if only just to ball As I stare through you and I stand quite still And an alarm sounds just up the road I can tell you'd like some company But I can't fix you and you don't want me I call for the witness Present the facts right down to the little things They say the heart is resilient In black and white you swore there'd be no strings I sneak out the back door But the gavel strikes, and I can hear you cry And the sound of my footsteps This time there will be no long goodbye As I stare through you and I stand quite still And an alarm sounds just up the road I can tell you'd like some sympathy But I can't fix you and you don't want me How can I trust you? How could you need me now? Its getting to be so cold The decision is in and I won't break You cut and you run with our lives at stake Well, someone might get hurt and it won't be me The decision is in there will be no fight It might sound cold but I know its right Cause someone must get hurt and it won't be me
