Broken Doors

(don't knock me down, don't knock me)

You tell it like a joke
You say it like I'm wrong
when you know that I'm right
Whatever helps you cope
Whatever helps you fall asleep late at night

I rather run away
I rather keep myself safe from all that you are
And the games that you play
They all end in scars

It's hard to believe that you've changed
when all my doors are broken
It's easier to find someone to blame
but these locks were never working
and we're scared that you might come and knock them down

don't knock me down

We're sitting in your car
You're driving way too fast
I don't know who you are
Cursing my name
It's hard to feel safe

But I got a tight grip
I'm not letting go when your eyes miss the road
When we smash the pavement
Will you think it's worth it

It's hard to believe that you've changed
when all my doors are broken
It's easier to find someone to blame
but these locks were never working

how long can I sit here just hoping
how long can I sit here just hoping

you won't knock them down

you won't knock them down

don't knock me down

You tell it like a joke
You say it like I'm wrong
when you know that I'm right
