It kills you when the one you love’s shaking Wounded from what you thought were blanks You’ve been as safe as a ladder Heading right into the flames Heading right into the flames If all that you’re giving is suffering If all that you have is your word It’s never enough to the woman you love but you hurt Hiding your careless distractions No one is safe from the kill Firecrackers don’t last forever Neither will this tiny pill Neither will this tiny pill If all that you’re trying for’s secret The love that you’re giving unsure It’s never enough to the woman you love but you hurt We’re so many different people No wonder we hurt each other
