I got so much to ask you
It's never the time
Why would I spoil a perfect evening?
We've gotten this far on being polite
Besides, I know you're proud of me
When I was made
Did they leave out a part?
Did you know this and choose to guard the secret?
You said everybody's born with a beautiful heart
Well, what was wrong with hers and
Why did you leave it?
If I start to cry, I may not stop
Love runs dry, I run off
Can you help me with this heart inside my chest?
It ain't perfect, but you should see me use it
But it only works when I make a mess
When it looks like I'm about to lose it
If I start to cry, I may not stop
Love runs dry, I run off
Yeah I'm just like my mother
Yeah I'm just like my mother
And if you don't love her
What does that mean about me?
If I start to cry, I may not stop
I wanna know why I run off
I wanna know why I'm like this
I wanna know why
