Icebreakers

Dance around your face
Like I don't know you're there
I'll wear my blinders
And halt the affair in my head
Before I get
Close enough to melt the ice
Yet never really feel the fire
It's always two steps forward
Three steps back
Each time you get me out of my head

'cause I know
I know what I'm running from
What if it all goes wrong?

I've got no room for option number two
But I've got room for crunching numbers
My front page lover tells me
That he hears music from my thighs
My front page lover looks so pretty when he lies

And I swear I looked better
When I kept my mouth shut
I guess it all loses meaning
When you say it too much
He said he sat on the bus
And the ground opened up
And it swallowed him whole

So I listened and thought
That if I could
I'd write a book about the way he looked
When he played his songs to me

I know what I'm running from
What if it all goes wrong?

'cause I know
I know what I'm running from
What if it all goes wrong?
Oh God,
It's gonna all go wrong
Oh God,
It's gonna all go wrong
Oh God
