Missy Higgins Casualty Lyrics

Casualty Lyrics



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. 

And oh, make it your best lie. 

'Cos I'm holding up a crystal glass dove in my hands and if it does 

Fall, if you do fall, it's my fault 



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, 

'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 

I'm not gonna 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 seem to give me is your pain 

I'm not gonna be, no ...
