Her eyes told me a story
Of lost faith and deception
But she could calmly tell me
It was a common misconception

And she said it didn't matter
It was her body he was after
You see, attention is attention
And she never got it from her daddy

Oh god we've heard it all before
We look just fine, hearts are worn
Oh god we've heard it all before
We look just fine, our lives are torn

His eyes tell me a story
Of losing love and failure
He says he's doing fine and
That he can't be any better

But I think that he's crashing
And he is void of passion
You know compassion's not compassion
If it's only trend or fashion
