How People Are
You shouldn't be allowed
To walk around out there in the world
Where everyone can see your face
They shouldn't be permitted to lay eyes on you
I wish that I could keep you locked up safe inside
Cause you're too good to share
A precious thing I wanna hide
What scares me the most is not how you are
What scares me the most is how people are
Selfish and searching for someone like you
Watching and waiting for two in love to screw it up
They say that the stars
Protect trusting hearts I'm not sure
When all around the evidence
Would suggest the opposite, it's a tragedy
When we should be out walking underneath the sun
But there's no telling who we'd see
It could be anyone
What scares me the most
Is not how you are
What scares me the most
Is how people are
Drifting and dreaming of someone like you
Lonely and looking for two in love to screw it up
I can't believe how perfect you are, I'm meant for you
I can't believe how jealous I am of anyone you ever knew
There was a time I thought we were free fromf worrying
Now we both know that's no way to be
We can't relax
We watch our backs
What scares me the most
Is not how you are
What scares me the most
Is how people are
To walk around out there in the world
Where everyone can see your face
They shouldn't be permitted to lay eyes on you
I wish that I could keep you locked up safe inside
Cause you're too good to share
A precious thing I wanna hide
What scares me the most is not how you are
What scares me the most is how people are
Selfish and searching for someone like you
Watching and waiting for two in love to screw it up
They say that the stars
Protect trusting hearts I'm not sure
When all around the evidence
Would suggest the opposite, it's a tragedy
When we should be out walking underneath the sun
But there's no telling who we'd see
It could be anyone
What scares me the most
Is not how you are
What scares me the most
Is how people are
Drifting and dreaming of someone like you
Lonely and looking for two in love to screw it up
I can't believe how perfect you are, I'm meant for you
I can't believe how jealous I am of anyone you ever knew
There was a time I thought we were free fromf worrying
Now we both know that's no way to be
We can't relax
We watch our backs
What scares me the most
Is not how you are
What scares me the most
Is how people are
