Katie burnt down
The flowershop where he used to
Buy her flowers
Pathetic way to pull her through

Fed up with the moves he made
She told him a thousand times
To back off, stop this sick parade
But in the end she snapped and crossed the line

Lisa’s waiting
(She’s waiting for a friend who won’t return, betrayed and now she’s learned)
For a friend who won’t return
One too many
(Never to rely)
Times betrayed and now she’s learned

Never to rely upon
Empty promises
Now she’ll only focus on
Where she lays her head to rest

Certain to hit anyone that’s standing in their way
Making sure that they will never get
Hurt again, to die before they’re ever cast away
Breaking falls has made them so afraid

Who the hell will stand up to convince them that they’re not
Supposed to ruin the master plan that might include you

On their way to celebrate
And to perfect the art
Of dancing alone and to reinstate
The time before a broken heart

Certain to hit anyone that’s standing in their way
Making sure that they will never get
Hurt again, to die before they’re ever cast away
Breaking falls has made them so afraid

They pushed them once too far and when
The smoke clears it’s time to pick up
The shattered fragments of what was
And go on solitarily
Fallen from grace
This breathing space
Means more than holding hands
Right now they need no care
No love affair
This is what keeps them sane

Certain to hit anyone that’s standing in their way
Making sure that they will never get
Hurt again, to die before they’re ever cast away
Breaking falls has made them so afraid
