I made a promise to myself that I would never fall, but
You ran into me like a fucking brick wall
How could I ignore the way your
Hair fell in your eyes
It's like, how can you just expect me to
Just go on with my life

Darling you talk like poetry
But you never talk to me
But you never talk to me
But you never talk to me

I made a promise to myself that I would never let it get so bad again
Well now, I’m stuck here with this pen
And a pad of paper dedicated to you

Darling you talk like poetry
But you never talk to me
But you never talk to me

I made you a picture out of flower petals
I'll leave it on your doorstep, just hoping that maybe you'll get it
Before the mail-man sees it and takes it away

Darling you talk like poetry
But you never talk to me
But you never talk to me
But you never talk to me
But you never talk to me

How am I supposed to breathe? (Darling you talk like poetry)
How am I supposed to breathe?
How am I supposed to breathe? (Darling you talk like poetry)
How am I supposed to breathe?
How am I supposed to breathe? (Darling you talk like poetry)
How am I supposed to breathe?
How am I supposed to breathe? (Darling you talk like poetry)
Supposed to breathe, supposed to breathe
