Get back on your feet again 
So insincere 
Quiet American 
I held you so dear 
Get back on your feet again 
I'm so into you 
We met in a cinema 
You fell from my view 
Lullaby 
Stop twisting my words tonight 
If you get high on life 
Don't leave me behind 
Get back on your feet again
Nothing to say 
Some of your weaker friends 
Get in my away 
Get back on your feet again 
You always seem down 
Some of your weaker friends
Don't want you around 
Lullaby 
Stop twisting my words tonight 
If you get high on life 
Don't leave me behind 
Lullaby 
You live in my ruined mind 
Make light of all my fears 
And lead me from here 
Get back on your feet again
So insincere 
Quiet American 
I held you so dear 
Get back on your feet again 
Nothing to say 
We met in a cinema 
You got in my way 
Lullaby 
Stop twisting my words tonight 
If you get high on life 
Don't leave me behind 
Lullaby 
You live in my ruined mind 
Make light of all my fears 
And lead me from here 
I was looking for another chance 
To see your blue eyed problem
