Smithereens

I saw your picture it made me sorry
For all the things I never said
It seems that you have cause to worry
It seems that you don't wish me wellBehind the victim, behind the trouble
Are all the things you've not expressed
I see you standing behind your mother
I see you hiding behind a dressSo don't make me sad
I couldn't stand to watch you fall
'Cause everybody has a tender heart
Remember this
I didn't mean to break it down to smithereensI heard you crying, I learned the story
I saw the shadows behind the past
They fall behind you and creep up slowly
We're only human behind the maskSo don't take me down
I couldn't stand to watch you fall
'Cause everybody has a broken heart
Remember this
I couldn't stand to break it down to smithereensAnd you say everybody is an island of their own
And you say everybody has a tender heart
Remember this
I couldn't bear to break it down to smithereensI didn't mean to break it down
I didn't mean to smithereens
I didn't mean to break it down
I didn't mean to smithereensEverybody is an island to themselves
Don't you know? Don't you?
Everybody is an island to themselves
Everybody is an island to themselves
Don't you know?
