everybody's trying to mend a broken heart
buy a little bit of love and try to start
sew your secrets up with cotton and with string
teach each other little recipies and things
to say
i'm not like that
it's not like that
i don't hurt like they do
but, oh, you're like that
yes you're like that
yes, you need somebody too
we put on navy suits and march
and keep in line
and laugh at all the silly people out of time
we count the minutes 'till we heal it with our...
we climb in bed with pretty strangers
and we cry oh oh oh
i'm not like that
i'm not like that
i don't want to hurt like they do
they find it hard to be alone
like everyone else that we know
and when our heads hurt in the dark
we look for beautiful remarks
we find it hard to be alone
like everyone else that we know
we get our heads hurt in the dark
we need some beautiful remarks
(yes we do)
we hang up photographs of people that we love
and when we glance at them
think 'well that's enough'
but when our mothers call we're busy doing stuff
we'll get back to them when things start clearing up
oh oh oh
i'm not like that
it's not like that
i don't hurt like they do
but it's not like that
yes, it's like that
yes, you need somebody too
you're just like that
yeah, it's just like that
yeah, you need somebody too
oh, you're like that
yes, you're like that
yes, you need somebody too
