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 well      Behind 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 her dress      So 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 smithereens      I 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 mask      So 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 smithereens      And you say   Everybody is an island of their own   And you say   Everybody has a tender heart   Remember this   I couldn't stand to break it down to smithereens      I didn't mean to break it down   I didn't mean to smithereens   Everybody is an island to themselves   Don't you know   Everybody is an island to themselves
