I forget when words were only words

She knows the party makes me nervous

In this stage we can't get hurt

Don't try to understand me

We're too cool to be alone

But, not too crazy to get busted

I found out one life just ain't enough

I need another soul to feed on

I'm the flame, I can't get burnt

I'm wholly understated

I found silence in this place

An on and off again attraction

I need such amazing grace

Heaven sweep me away

Love don't change, don't come around here

Don't wear my heart on your sleeve

Like a high school letter

Don't strain, 'cause nothing ever comes from it

And the people we've become, well

They've never been the people who we are

I strapped on one horse and prayed for luck

I dug another hole to bleed

I know exactly how this works

I need a new feel dirty

I don't need you crowding up my space

I just want to get inside you, inside you

You can't believe the heart you save

Giving something away

Love don't change, don't come around here

Don't wear my heart on your sleeve

Like a high school letter

Don't strain, 'cause nothing ever comes from it

And the people we've become, well

They've never been the people who we are

Don't strain, don't come around here

Don't mistake something more for something better

Don't strain, 'cause nothing ever comes from it

And the people we've become, well

They've never been the people who we are

Who we are, yeah

I dreamed that the world was crumbling down

We sat on my back porch and watched it

(Jesus is knocking on the door of your heart today)

I dreamed that the buildings all fell down

We sat on my back porch and watched it

Yeah well I dreamed that the world was crumbling down

We sat on my back porch and watched

In my head I heard the sound

Like fifteen strangers dancing

But oh how I want you to know me

Oh how I want you to know me

Oh how I wish I was somebody else, baby

Oh how I wish you could own me

Love don't change, don't come around here

Don't wear my heart on your sleeve

Like a high school letter

Don't strain, 'cause nothing ever comes from it

And the people we've become, well

They've never been the people who we are

Don't change, don't come around here

Don't wear my heart on your sleeve

Like a high school letter

Don't strain, 'cause nothing ever comes from it

And the people we've become, well

They've never been the people who we are

Who we are, who we are

Yeah
