Don't Ask Me

Ask me to travel the world, armed with a suitcase, filled up with cobwebs and broken dreams,
Ask me to leave all behind me against the background of a burning bridge

Ask me to hang by a thread on the rollercoaster we used to call life
But don't ask me to walk away

But don't ask me girl
But don't ask me girl
to walk away, girl

Ask me a balancing act, dodging the flames and bullets of friendly fire shot at me
Trying to collect all the pieces of you that shatter around when we hit the ground

Ask me to hang by a thread on the rollercoaster we used to call life
But don't ask me to walk away

But don't ask me girl
But don't ask me girl
to walk away, girl

Call me out when you are afraid if you grieve or celebrate
I’ll be just a shout away

When the sky is getting dark, and every voice sounds like a bark,
I’ll be just a shout away

But don't ask me to walk away, girl
