The city slips away too soon Tonight she's wide awake Making small talk with Mr. Moon Singing louder than the rain On nights like these she can be herself She forgets I'm there but it's just as well I always feel like I'm by myself And she never will, oh never will She says she hates the fact that men can see She wants to tear the eyes out of everything What makes her feel the way she feels Like everything is nothing What makes her see the things she sees Like everything that's wrong with me I guess I should stop trying to figure her out I should know by now that I'm not allowed Now I know this is not allowed If I want to keep her coming 'round She says she hates the fact that men can see She wants to tear the eyes out of every living thing Oh God! I grin Does that include me... does that include... She hides her reflection with pictures from magazines She gets so angry when I don't see what she sees But if I'm supposed to sit and watch her tear herself apart, then maybe I was wrong Maybe she never really knew me at all Hello, hello Did you find your self-esteem Should I suppose that he's giving you what you need And so it goes and slowly I begin to breathe Hello, hello I'm so sorry it wasn't me The city slips away too soon Tonight she's wide awake Making small talk with Mr.Moon He listens to everything she says and doesn't try to understand Never expects to be let in He just hangs on every word That comes from the mouth of this little girl
