rubbish cans

when i catch the lift to reach a higher floor

i always push the button to close the door

i'd rather run away from saying hello

i'd rather be cold and wait for the bus

and there's no such thing as a stranger i trust

i tried to put my make-up on

to cover up whats wrong

doesn't stop it running down

with the thunder clouds

i need to chill against the rubbish cans

and learn to live with dirty hands

i tried to put my make-up on

but i'm not fooling anyone

didn't i know

didn't i know

why didn't i know

didn't i know

why

theres no profession when i'm afraid

i let my pride come and take the reigns

now you can offer a shoulder for me to lean

thats what i need to give it away

cause i kept inside with a lock and chain

i tried to put my make-up on

to cover up whats wrong

doesn't stop it running down

with the thunder clouds

i need to chill against the rubbish cans

and learn to live with dirty hands

i tried to put my make-up on

but i'm not fooling anyone

didn't i know

why didn't i know

a scar

a scar's are down my face

didn't i know

why didn't i know?

and i cant avoid the mess i've made

i tried to put my make-up on

to cover up whats wrong

doesn't stop it running down

with the thunder clouds

i need to chill against the rubbish cans

and learn to live with dirty hands

i tried to put my make-up on

but i'm not fooling anyone

didn't i know

why didn't i know

didn't i know.no no
