She was dancing, she was smiling Roses blooming in her cheeks In a quiet, kind of litany She accepted from the feet And then she twriled into the arms Of disgrace, and then repelled Now she's fallen to her knees, But you couldn't ever tell And then, she asked me how we got here I told her I don't know And if you keep on asking I'll just keep saying So, this isn't what I wanted It isn't what you need Oh, let them keep on talking Just calm yourself and breathe Don't you pay them any mind Don't you pay them any mind You know this happens every time Don't you pay them any mind Where the burdens of her mother Weigh like sandbags on the eyes As she closes, just to open As the sirens whirling by And now she's off to tell her secret To a friends somewhere in town And her friend just takes a moment And asks why I'm not around Darling, this is something I should've told you long ago I just want you to feel safe I just want to make you glow Oh, how you glowed when we were young And with nothing on our minds But each other, one another And we had nothing then but time And then, she asked me how we got here I told her I don't know And if you keep on asking I'll just keep saying so This isn't what I wanted It isn't what you need Oh, let them keep on talking Just calm yourself and breathe Don't you pay them any mind Don't you pay them any mind You knows this happens every time Don't you pay them any mind Ooooh Why do we have go through this everytime Some days you hear it Some days you don't Sometimes you feel it Sometimes you don't Just calm yourself and breathe Don't you pay them any mind Don't you pay them any mind You know this happens every time Now don't you pay them any mind Don't you pay them any mind Don't you pay them any mind You know this happens every time Don't you pay them any mind
