My body is a foreign land
You were walking through the sand
The tide swells but won't subside
A vessel waiting to capsize
Your feet will sink, they won't stay dry
But go ahead, give it a try
If you pin me down under your thumb
You should hide and you should run
Oh, my, oh my God
Heaven knows you took this too far
Who the hell do you think you are?
You won't fall in love
I gotta walk away from him
Just go, go, go
But oh my God
If I could dress myself in iron clothes
Weigh out cons instead of pros
You won't have seen me at my best
You wouldn't have to hold your breath
I wouldn't have the dizzy spells
You wouldn't have to walk on shells
If you pin me down under your thumb, boy
You should hide and you should run
Oh, my, oh my God
Heaven knows you took this too far
Who the hell do you think you are?
You won't fall in love
I gotta walk away from him
Just go, go, go
But oh my God
I know I want to be
When you are next to me
I know that I should go but I can't turn away, no
Patterns we have to break
Chances we shouldn't take
The seeds of our mistakes and I wish for a life of love
Oh, my, oh my God
Heaven knows you took this too far
Who the hell do you think you are?
You won't fall in love
I gotta walk away from him
Just go, go, go
But oh my God
