No Such Thing

Remembering a time back then
what I wouldn't give to be there again
I thought we could move on
but I couldn't be more wrong
I'm giving up on believing
It's about time to dive in

There's no such thing as magic
You can't put my heart back in
There's no such thing as fate
You broke me down day by day
There's no such thing as loyalty
as long as we rely on honesty
It's a little above and beyond
but there's no such thing as love

Welcome to the mind of the pessimistic
We pride ourselves on being realistic
so I'm a little negative
Give me something to believe in
It helps me to pass the time
to act like I'm just fine

There's no such thing as magic
You can't put my heart back in
There's no such thing as fate
You broke me down more each day
There's no such thing as loyalty
as long as we rely on honesty
It's a little above and beyond
but there's no such thing as love

Let go of your childhood fantasies
the world you see in your dreams
Come back down to the ground
where your head stays out of the clouds

There's no such thing as magic
You can't put my heart back in
There's no such thing as fate
You broke me down more each day
There's no such thing as loyalty
as long as we rely on honesty
It's a little above and beyond
but there's no such thing as love

Rescue Me

I give you so much more than you deserve
I love you when I know it's going to hurt
I guess I'm partly to blame, you see
I let you do everything you did to me
I knew when I saw you the first time
you would never really be mine
I never knew my heart could break
until you took everything could take

I want to be done waiting on you
to rescue me
My wishes just won't come true
not for me
Deep down you might actually care
For me
Is there a heart in there?
Does it beat?
Make sure you do some growing up
A little more
Before you tell me you're in love
with her

She might be the one to make you feel
the same feeling you give to me
but don't look at me when she's not around
Knowing if you keep me quiet, she won't find out
Don't remember me only when you want to
just to forget about just as soon
Someday you'll know what it's like to be ignored
to hear muffled voices from behind the door

I want to be done waiting on you
to rescue me
My wishes just won't come true
not for me
Deep down you might actually care
for me
Is there a heart in there?
Does it beat?
Make sure you do some growing up
a little more
before you tell me you're in love
with her

I thought that maybe you could change
but you proved me wrong and stayed the same
I need a hero, I need a hero
to catch me before I hit the floor

I want to be done waiting on you
to rescue me
My wishes just won't come true
not for me
Deep down you might actually care
for me
Is there a heart in there?
Does it beat?
Make sure you do some growing up
a little more
Before you tell me you're in love
with her

Make sure you do some growing up
please
Before you figure out you're in love
with me
