I was always a fool for love
But I made a promise I would never get hurt by love
Lock myself in that lonely shell
Hidden from the predators who crave all my pearls to sell
I don't know what made you say
Chills as you answer my name
Porcelain dolls crash and break
Counting the breaths that you take
Boy, you take me for quite the ride
You've got me spitting truths
And feeling all sorts inside
I hear your voice and I'm wide awake
A kind of adrenaline where I can't reach the brakes
I'm down, feeling vulnerable now
Calling quits, as if
I've never been all that sensible
It's indefensible
Right now, I'm walking downtown
In my pink ball gown, like the drip
But you're not here at all
Not here to see at all
I don't know what made you say
Chills as you answer my name
Porcelain dolls crash and break
Counting the breaths that you take
Take me along for your ride,
Catch me before we collide
I'm down, feeling vulnerable now,
Calling quits as if
I've never been all that sensible
It's indefensible
Right now, I'm walking downtown
In my pink ball gown, like the drip
But you're not here at all
Not here to see at all
I don't know what made you say
Chills as you answer my name
Porcelain dolls crash and break
Counting the breaths that you take
I don't know what made you say
Chills as you answer my name
Porcelain dolls crash and break
Counting the breaths that you take
I was always a fool for love
But I made a promise I would never get hurt by love
Lock myself in my lonely shell
Hidden from the predators who crave all my pearls to sell
