Crash and burn

You walk along corridors,

Pretending its O.K,

you hold your head up high,

afraid to fall from the sky.


     Don't be scared.
                 I'll catch you.

 
You're never alone,

You go to Party's,

You get drunk,

and dance.

              You hide from yourself,
                This pain builds up inside,

Yet still,
You hide.

        Don't be scared,
               to come out from the dark,
                        I'll always be your light

                For you,

               I'll burn bright.

Another day,

You find other ways,

to pretend it's all o.k.


  You sit alone,
             In your dark dark room,
    To match your cold cold heart.

            But trust me,
                  I know,
            That inside,

     Is a fire,
         I'll tame it with my heart,
             Full for you,

        Tear shaped rain.

    this is interesting... this has to be one of my favourite songs by savage garden, and you have captured it well. i'm not too sure about the wonky layout.. i think it could have done without it but all the same a very good effort... lolly x
