A lonely silhouette

Smoking a cigarette

Hoping for the phone to ring

Though she's sick of the sound

Of people's mouths

Winding her up

And putting her down



Don't get sad

When people that you trusted stab you in the back

So, you thought they were your friends?

Now you know (now you know)

There's one thing in life that holds



And now she wants to cry

Staying in on Friday night

Lying in her birthday suit

And listening to the bickering

From the room above

And wondering if it's fear of loneliness or love

That keeps people like that together

Forever...



Don't get sad

When people that you trust stab you in the back

So, you thought they were your friends?

Now you know (now you know)

There's one thing in life that holds

You're on your own (you've gotta grow)
