Lyrics - My Burst Balloon by Catch

I'm not aware that pushing forward constitutes an advance.
That memory's best served by one backward glance;
But
I'm concerned for people like you who think it's okay to do what you do to me.
Well it's not.
You see.
Yes.
I am scared that if
I challenge you.
You'll push me away.
Or strike me dumb when
I have so much to say.
I've practiced these words.
Yet now they accuse.
My heart's fit to burst with all
I could lose from love.
Did
I choose love?
Oh . my burst balloon.
Oh my shattered dreams.
Oh.
My so -called life.
This tired tune.
My burst balloon.
I don't agree: if you can't kiss another you're not free??
Go satisfy your lust - forget about me.
But what will it mean when everyone's gone ? your body is queen.
Your mind carries on empty.
It was not meant to be.
I won't be scared:
I won't hold back .
I'll make my point .
I'll seek my fact.
I won't be quiet.
Won't settle down.
You picked me up.
You hung around.
For now it's my turn to do the same?
I never played those games.
