I was born a bull in a china cabinet Drawn to the delicate like it’s a magnet Perfume bottles on a mirror tray Tempered glass on a window pane Timeless face on a pocket watch Time is ticking
I leave it all in ruins Cause I don’t know what I’m doing I’m hard on things that matter Hold a heart so tight it shatters So I stay away from things that break
Can’t make a man a promise with the best of intentions Or drive 200 miles on a rundown engine Put a blanket underneath a hollow tree When the wind blows hard it will fall on me Stick around long enough and you will see Time is ticking
I leave it all in ruins Cause I don’t know what I’m doing I’m hard on things that matter Hold a heart so tight it shatters So I stay away from things that break
Me I don’t ever wanna get too close Or be held responsible For all the pain that you can’t see Somebody once broke me
I leave it all in ruins Cause I don’t know what I’m doing I’m hard on things that matter Hold a heart so tight it shatters So I stay away from things that break
