Speed Bump

I need to get myself together

Because I'm falling behind

I'm hoping for some better weather

I could do with some sunshine in my life

And all my friends are falling down

And I'm just hoping they'll survive

We're writing out our favourite lyrics

On our arms to pass the time

Don't you know the charmers are the dangerous ones?

Don't you know?

It's all a learning curve

And I'm going round the bend

And I have learnt

All good things have to end

And then you stabbed me in the back

And I'm hoping that you know

You were just a speed bump

Yeah, a speed bump in my road

I'm bitter like a Monday morning

Because I don't know how else to be

And I am really fascinated

By the people I pass on the street

And they are just human

They shouldn't make me nervous, but they do

And one day I hope you realise

You had the one girl who could never hurt you

Don't you know the charmers are the dangerous ones?

Don't you know?

It's all a learning curve

And I'm going round the bend

And I have learnt

All good things have to end

And then you stabbed me in the back

And I'm hoping that you know

You were just a speed bump

Yeah, a speed bump in my road

And now I'm picking up the pieces

Like an end of the film cliché

And everyone is thinking

I'm a breathing catastrophe

And I'm almost sinking

But I know that it won't last

And I've always wondered

Why do we sugarcoat the past?

Cause you were just a charmer and a dangerous one, weren't you?

It's all a learning curve

And you were dangerous and shameless all of the way

I can no longer trust you or anybody

And you didn't care and you still don't

And you never wanted me and you probably won't

It's a learning curve

And I'm going round the bend

And I have learnt

All good things have to end

And then you stabbed me in the back

And I'm hoping that you know

You were just a speed bump

Yeah, a speed bump in my road

I need to get myself together
