He's crying inside Life's rushing by LIke and old movie backdrop Can't tear the hurt out The radio's blasting Song after song That went all wrong About the big romance She says: I just wanted to make you CHORUS I never meant to break you Have some mercy on me Such a mercenary He says: Do you have to be She's scheming inside Been through it before Can't stop the wheels turning Just a gold-plated heart There's no profit or learning She's not really bad It rips her apart So scared to be alone CHORUS
