Safer Child

she'll turn back into her child
when things get too grown up
trim you like a paper doll
soon she'll hang you up

and i become a ragedy andy
with his eyes open wide
a red yarn smile to compensate
the emptiness inside

children bend (iv) (melody is in minor: #4 5 1
they never break (i) #5 5 b3 (2,1)
just pretend (v)
the pain was fake (v)

the curtains fall (iv)
the act completes (i)
you leave resentment (i, ii7b5 (3 2 1 #5.. 5)
in your seats (4 2 1)

things dont change outside her
just everything within
cause when she finds her pediatric mind
thats when the show begins

she takes her joy from nearby toys
she makes her toys from nearby boys
she plays with fire like a friend
forgetting how to unpretend

children bend (iv) (melody is in minor: #4 5 1
they never break (i) #5 5 b3 (2,1)
just pretend (v)
the pain was fake (v)

the curtains fall (iv)
the act completes (i)
you leave resentment (it all) (i, ii7b5 (3 2 1 #5.. 5)
back in your seats (4 2 1)
