Everybody has been burned before
Everybody knows to play
Anyone in this place
Can tell it to your face
Why you shouldn't try to love someone

Everybody knows it never works
Everybody know and me
When you walk through that door
That shut just before
You get to the dream you'll see

I know all too well how to turn how to run
I know how to hide behind a bitter wall of blue
But you die inside
If you choose to hide
So I guess instead I love you
