Lyrics Missy Higgins

Missy Higgins

Casualty

Give me my dream and give me a scene

Where you have a past of which you are clean.

Oh, give me a lie.

Tell me you fell 'cos of my grace and not to help you erase her face.

And oh, make it your best lie.

'Cos I'm holding up a crystal glass dove in my hands and if it does

Fall, if you do fall, it's my fault

So I don't wanna be with one more casualty

'Cos all you're gonna give me is pain

And I'm not gonna be with one more casualty

'Cos all you see's a human bandage

Tell me I'd find you're happy inside and if I end this you'll be fine,

Oh, tell me a lie.

Just look at me and say honestly that I'm all you want, not what you need.

And oh, make it your best lie, love,

'Cos I'm holding up a crystal glass dove in my hands

And if it does fall, if it does fall it's my fault.

So I don't wanna be with one more casualty,

'Cos all you're givin' me is pain

And I'm not gonna be with one more casualty

'Cos all you see's a human bandage

And I've been playing games

And now I've change my ways

The character I always played

Helped me to forget my name

But now I know,

So get out of my way!

'Cos I'm not gonna be one more casualty

It's been too long since I looked after me ...

I'm not gonna be with one more casualty,

'Cos all you're givin' me is pain

And I'm not gonna be with one more casualty

'Cos all you see's a human bandage

I'm not gonna be with one more casualty,

'Cos all you're givin' me is pain

And I'm not gonna be with one more casualty

'Cos all you seem to give me is your pain

I'm not gonna be, no ...
