Rick Fontaine - Pushover

I was born with a foot- in- mouth disease
You might say I shouldn't let these things worry me
But that's OK, you never spent the day in apology

It's been said that I've been living in my mind
Like John said, living is easier if you close your eyes
Lyin' in bed everything in life is so simplified

If you should push me over just to watch me fall
Just be sure to notice it wasn't very hard at all
If I should fall to pieces from the weight of your stare
It's not my eggshell ego - it's just too much for me to bear

I've got something that's broken beyond repair
It's called an internal monologue and it's hardly ever there
But don't let that worry you, it just shows that I care

I was born with a foot- in- mouth disease
You might say that it's all just ancient history
But I know that they'll dig it all up one of these days

I don't need you to understand
I don't need you to hold my hand
All I need from you is somehow to open my eyes
I don't want to call my name
I don't want to you to play my games
All I want from you is someone to pass all my time
