Lyrics Missy Higgins – Casualty

Give me my dream and give me a scene
Where you have a past of which you are clean.
Oh, give me a lie.
Tell me you fell ‘cos of my grace and not to help you erase her face.

So I don’t wanna be with one more casualty
‘Cos all you’re gonna give me is pain
And I’m not gonna be with one more casualty
‘Cos all you see’s a human bandage

Tell me I’d find you’re happy inside and if I end this you’ll be fine,
Oh, tell me a lie.

Just look at me and say honestly that I’m all you want, not what you need.
And oh, make it your best lie, love,
‘Cos I’m holding up a crystal glass dove in my hands
And if it does fall, if it does fall it’s my fault.

So I don’t wanna be with one more casualty,
‘Cos all you’re givin’ me is pain
And I’m not gonna be with one more casualty
‘Cos all you see’s a human bandage

And I’ve been playing games
And now I’ve change my ways
The character I always played
Helped me to forget my name
But now I know,
So get out of my way!

‘Cos I’m not gonna be one more casualty
It’s been too long since I looked after me …
I’m not gonna be with one more casualty,
