I'd perfer it If you turned on your heel and just walked away And I'm not 'tired' I don't 'hate you' I just can't let you see me cry         I can't             let you see             when I                   feel like dying     I need                         the quiet      To fix up                             my feelings      To stitch                              up my cuts        To fix                            my heart    With clear                       plastic tape because ... that's the only way I can ever apear 'happy' So stand ... far away give me some space So maybe, I won't have to worry, about the tears ... on my face
