Why on Earth Should I Follow You Down

why on earth should I follow you down
all I've ever been is your piece of chalk
that you can write with what you want
and then always rub off
well why should I go on protecting you this way
you wear the uniform and I'll be the shield
and when all the people who want to hurt you
throw rocks, oh yeah, I'll pretend I don't feel it
you stare at me like a plane crash on TV
you kill all my muscles and make my heart freeze
why do I follow you down when you fall
why do I love you at all
why don't I let you drive me crazy
why do my walls are like footprints at the side
why should I be blue when you get blue
why should I be true when you keep lying
well did someone break your little heart again
well everybody knows it wasn't me
cause I'm just that statue in the middle of your park
that you run around and notice occasionally
oh you stare at me like a plane crash on TV
you kill all my muscles and make my heart freeze
why do I follow you down when you fall
and why do I love you at all
why on earth should I follow you down
I hear you're an angel when I'm not around
should I do it for the days that lie behind
should I do it cause I've gone blind
well why on earth should I follow you down?
well why on earth should I follow you down?
