lyrics

It started off as a joke
It started off as a way to survive
But now when I feel alone
His smile is what keeps me alive
I didn't think it would happen,
In fact I'm still not sure why,
But I keep on reminding myself,
That one of us has to die.

Why did I let my guard down?
I know we're both going to get hurt
I know that in the end it won't work out
But somehow I just can't desert him
Why did I let my guard down?
I've learned not to let my heart decide
But somehow the boy with the bread has made me fall,
And maybe things will be fine,
And there's no way,
That I'd ever let him be mine
No there's no way,
Everything will ever be fine.

Why did I let my guard down?
I know we're both going to get hurt
I know that in the end it won't work out
But somehow I just can't desert him
No, there's no way,
That I'd ever let him be mine
No there's no way,
Everything will ever be fine.
