Lyrics
RECKLESS
You crash into me like a wrecking ball
And use a hammer to break right through my walls
You come on strong and then you tear me down
Throw my emotions onto the ground
And you say anything to have your fun
You leave the scene with all the damage done
You play at lovin just to find your kicks
And you fall on me like a ton of bricks
Your so reckless with my feelings
Reckless with my heart
So irresponsible, so unbelievable
You take your chances and the devil may care
Reckless, reckless, reckless, reckless
You take my feelings with a loaded gun
You knock me over in a high speed hit and run
You break and enter with a heart of stone
And when you leave it?s a disaster zone
The way you treat me is a crude disgrace
You hide your conscience in an empty space
You track me down with cold efficiency
And leave a state of emergency
(Your so) reckless with my feelings
Reckless with my heart
So undependable, so indefensible
Its do or die and so the devil may care
Reckless, reckless, reckless, reckless
You?re leaving my heart broken and derelict
I?m feeling the pain from the wounds that you inflict
The words that you say just cut me up inside
I?m battered and bruised, lost and confused
I?m tattered and torn, used up and worn
With nowhere to hide
