lyrics

I want to suspend disbelief, want to fail my reality check
I want my heart to beat so hard it breaks
I just find it hard to believe in the things that I used to
like rainbows and unicorns and how love can make me shake

I want you to break my heart to save me
I want you to crush my dreams
'cause it'll mean that I had some
and I want some

I want to laugh so hard I choke and can't breathe
I want you to make me cry so I can't see
i want to walk five miles in the pouring rain and get soaking wet
just to find that you aren't home, I'll do it all again

I want you to break my heart to save me
I want you to crush my dreams
'cause it'll mean that I had some
and I want some

I want to suspend disbelief, want to fail my reality check
I want my heart to beat so hard it breaks
I just find it hard to believe in the things that I used to
like rainbows and unicorns,
and sparkles,
and the color pink,
and dishes not left in the sink,
and how you used to look at me,
before we started arguing
and how love can make me shake

I want you to break my heart to save me
I want you to crush my dreams
'cause it'll mean that I had some
and I want some
