Matchbox Twenty › Lyrics › Busted

Well, I forget when the 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

Well, 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

An' I found silence in this space
An on and off again attraction
And I need such amazing grace
Heaven sweep me away, 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

Well, I strap 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
Well, I just want to get inside you, inside
You can't believe the heart you save
Giving something away, 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 change, don't come around here
Don't mistake this for 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

Well, I dreamed that the world was crumbling down
We sat on my back porch and watched it
Well, 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 it
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, 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
