Child

You say you don’t need this

But I don’t believe it

We keep coming back here every time

And wee keep repeating

And we practice leaving

And we’re not grateful but we’re too in love to mind

If I am just quiet, waiting, patient

You're not gonna notice

Maybe it's a sign of innocence that

I can be a child and get out of control

You push the buttons like God only knows

I don’t wanna be like other people you know

I just wanna be the only one that you call oooh

You wanna cut and I wanna bleed

As long as you are gonna lie with me

I don’t wanna be like other people you know

I just wanna be the only one that you call

'Cause you don’t need this

And I don’t either

'Cause I start going grey way too young

We follow patterns

Of misbehaviour

But we’re smiling just enough to keep it up

If I am just quiet, waiting, patient

You're not gonna notice

Rather have me dog eyed, underrated

That’ll get it going

And maybe it's a sign of innocence that

I can be a child and get out of control

You push the buttons like God only knows

I don’t wanna be like other people you know

I just wanna be the only one that you call oooh

You wanna cut and I wanna bleed

As long as you are gonna lie with me

I don’t wanna be like other people you know

I just wanna be the only one that you call
