lyrics

You say I’m a wonderful woman
And the pedestal shakes away
You say I’m the best thing that’s happened to you
And this tear inside my soul gives way

You say we have so much in common
So much it scares me sometimes
And I’d like to grab hold of this wild pony and ride
But the cliff is up ahead just out of sight and

I will not give in till you understand
I am not so wonderful as you think I am

I see the sun set in the water
But the fire never dies
And I think I love you so hard
But I stuff it down so far inside and

It will not give in till you understand
I am not so wonderful as you think I am

‘Cause there’s a piece of me that got pushed too far inside
And it fell down in the dark to hide
And you press your fingers ‘gainst the holes
But I come apart in your hand
And I don’t know if I can stand this pain
And I don’t want you to go and I don’t want to cause you pain

Here we stand once again face to face to face to face
Will you take no guarantees and will you keep a pace
With these demons I’ve got running ‘round inside
All these monsters running through my mind

They will not give in till you understand
I am not so wonderful as you think I am

No I will not give in till you understand
I am not so wonderful as you think I am
