I Like You 'Cause You're Free

The smell of burnt
Travels on the tracks
Where hope might be lying
Underneath buildings that collapse
And I fight against the fear
That grips me by my throat
I fight to be me to leave this death unheard
But in the end

I like you 'cause you're free
I like you 'cause you're not like me

You tell me you don't care
What other people have to say
And you're great enough to stare
With a smile upon your face
But me, I'm always taken
By the thought of all those shoes
Stepping on the station floor
The world to lose

We're looking for a place
Where the curtains could be drawn
Where the best of all our days
Could be condensed into just one
And I know that if I leave
I'll only end up by your door
Like a dog that bites its tail
I will love you till I'm gone

I like you 'cause you're free
I like you 'cause you don't like me

The smell of burnt
Travels on the tracks
Where hope might be lying
Underneath buildings that collapse
And I fight against the fear
That grips me by my throat
I fight to be me to leave this death unheard

All we are is what we choose to hide from each other
Tell me how you really feel or don't even bother talking
