______________________________________________ first I was afraid, I was petrified

And I grew strong- And I learned how __________________________________ get along
And so you’re back, ______________________________________________ outer space
I just walked ______________ to find you here with that sad look ____________ your face
I should have changed that stupid lock, I should have made you leave your key
If I’d have known ___________ just one second you’d be _______________ to bother me
Go ______________________ now, go- walk ___________________________ the door
Just turn _________________________________ now, cos you’re not welcome anymore
Weren’t you the one who tried _________________ hurt me _______________ goodbye
Did you think I’d crumble? Did you think I’d lay ___________________________ and die?
