Blue

Maybe you could show me how to build the wall.
Teach me not to feel and I will never have to fall.
I'll build my island of ice, right beside yours.
It's better not to feel
No hearts get broken here...

He says come inside
come into my bed
come for me, pretty girl
don't worry your head
about what this is or where it's going
Just get down
and feel me feel nothing
feel me
feel nothing
feel me feel...
nothing.

Feel...

This place is so cold
and maybe you could show me how to build the wall.
Paint it blue, and I will promise not to fall.
I'll build my island of ice
right beside yours.

It's better not to feel
Hearts get broken this way
It's better not to feel
what's the point of letting love in anyway?

Show me how...
All the other damaged boys are hiding down inside.
Show me how...
to make my warm heart so cold it cracks open wide.
Teach me to slip and slide through the darkness and still land on my feet
Rub pain out of my eyes... and sleep.
