saw your face in a photograph pinned up on my wall dropped a disc on the phonograph sang the words to it all pick up the pieces and run away I feel so numb since you called there's a nail in my chest my head's full of cement how far can I fall? I'm so vulnerable so vulnerable so vulnerable [chorus:] was it a lie was it a fake a sad and beautiful mistake? now I know you don't know where I'm coming from eye for an eye give me a break I lost everything at stake now I know you don't know where I'm coming from wrote you a letter the other day I just ripped it in half I had to watch it all drain away choke on all the thoughts of the past yeah you're vulnerable so vulnerable so vulnerable [chorus] now I know you don't know where I'm coming from [chorus] and I know you don't know where I'm coming from now I'll never know where you are coming from
