Lyrics:

When your face was forming 
and the world was reddened mud 
All around you felt like all inside you* 
though I guess it always it does 

You're like a YoYo that glows in the dark 
What makes you special makes you dangerous** 
I wanted to write you a song 
so I pulled a few apart and made them into this one 

When the sky was falling 
and you couldn't ask for help 
You were sure there was one person to blame 
and that person was yourself 

You're like a YoYo that glows in the dark 
What makes you special makes you dangerous** 
And if the world don't love you then the world is wrong 
And if the world don't love you then the world is wrong 
You're so sad but so damn strong 
I said if the world don't love you then the world must be wrong 
It must be wrong 

*borrowed from Paul Kelly's From St Kilda to King's Cross ("And all around me felt like all inside me") 

**borrowed from Kate Bush's Cloudbusting ("You're like my yo-yo / That glowed in the dark / What made it special / Made it dangerous")
