When I catch the lift to reach a higher floor
I always push the button to close the door
I'd rather run away from saying hello
I'd rather be cold and wait for the bus
And there's no such thing as a stranger I trust
I tried to put my make-up on, to cover up what's wrong
Doesn't stop it running down, with the thunder clouds
I need to chill against the rubbish cans
And learn to live with dirty hands
I tried to put my make-up on, but I'm not fooling anyone
Didn't I know
Didn't I know
Why didn't I know
Didn't I know, Why
There's no profession when I'm afraid
(When I'm, when I'm afraid of the days)
I let my pride come and take the reigns
(My pride come take the reigns)
Now you can offer a shoulder for me to lean
That's what I need to give it away
Cause I kept inside with a lock and chain
I tried to put my make-up on, to cover up what's wrong
Doesn't stop it running down, with the thunder clouds
I need to chill against the rubbish cans
And learn to live with dirty hands
I tried to put my make-up on, but I'm not fooling anyone
Didn't I know
Why didn't I know
A scar, a scar's are down my face
Didn't I know
Why didn't I know?
And I can't avoid the mess I've made
I tried to put my make-up on, to cover up what's wrong
Doesn't stop it running down, with the thunder clouds
I need to chill against the rubbish cans
And learn to live with dirty hands
I tried to put my make-up on, but I'm not fooling anyone
Didn't I know
Why didn't I know
Didn't I know... no no
