Cat Boland - Manic Pixie Lyrics

I hate to see you cry
At the corner of fifteenth
Close your eyes and count to three
And if your tears don't dry
I'll be right there to hold you
Whenever you need me
But you try so hard not to need me
Yeah you try so hard not to be disappointing
You know all too well what it means
Caught in the in-between
Crusader with porcelain teeth
They say you're too young to know what you need
Where this life will lead
Manic pixie daydreams
And you wander these busy streets
Picking up the pieces of your broken wings
Waiting to be free
Manic pixie daydreams
And if I could
Know I would go back
Love like somebody should've
So you wouldn't grow up knowing pain
The pain that you use against me
And it always finds its way back in
Circling until it wins
But I think we're old enough now
To keep the past from dragging us down
Crusader with porcelain teeth
They say you're too young to know what you need
Where this life will lead
Manic pixie daydreams
And you wander these busy streets
Picking up the pieces of your broken wings
Waiting to be free
Manic pixie daydreams
Oh manic pixie
Oh how you haunt me
Oh how you lost me
Oh manic pixie
Oh how you haunt me
Oh how you lost me
Oh manic pixie
Oh how you haunt me
Oh how you lost me
