Give me my dream and give me a scene
where you have a past of which you are clean.
Oh, give me a lie.
Tell me you fell 'cos of my grace
and not to help you erase her face.
And oh, make it your best lie.
'Cause I'm holding up a crystal glass dove in my hands
and if it does fall, if you do fall, it's my fault
So I don't wanna be with one more casualty
'Cause all you're gonna give me is pain
And I'm not gonna be with one more casualty
'Cause all you see's a human bandage
Tell me I'd find you're happy inside
and if I end this you'll be fine,
Oh, tell me a lie.
Just look at me and say honestly
that I'm all you want, not what you need.
And oh, make it your best lie, love,
'Cause I'm holding up a crystal glass dove in my hands
And if it does fall, if you do fall it's my fault.
So I don't wanna be with one more casualty,
'Cause all you're givin' me is pain
And I'm not gonna be with one more casualty
'Cause all you see's a human bandage
And I've been playing games
And now I've change my ways
The character I always played
Helped me to forget my name
But now I know,
So get out of my way!
'Cause I'm not gonna be one more casualty
It's been too long since I looked after me
I'm not gonna be with one more casualty,
'Cause all you're givin' me is pain
And I'm not gonna be with one more casualty
'Cause all you see's a human bandage
I'm not gonna be with one more casualty,
'Cause all you're givin' me is pain
And I'm not gonna be with one more casualty
'Cause all you seem to give me is your pain
I'm not gonna be, no

This goes in my quote book.
Hi there,
I read your old blog a while ago and then re-discovered you when you had moved to this one. I really like your idea of a lovers' diary - and I am therefore giving you the lemonade award! The rules are at thegirlinthebaytree.blogspot.com.
Greetings,
poet
Some really great lines!
