I believed you
I had no reason not to
When you told me I
Could trust you with my life
But I've been learning
That you're a different person
Than you advertise
And I just buy and buy and buy and buy

You're nothing but trouble
You burst my bubble

'Cause you were just heaven on stilts
You're wobbling
You're wobbling
Now look at my heaven on stilts
It's stumbling
It's tumbling down

I heard a crash
Oh well, well welcome back
The ground will suit you fine
It's far more open to your kind
And my heart's been yearning
But at least my neck's no longer hurting
From looking up at the sky
Oh so high, so high, so high, so high

I'll never recover
Goodbye, seesaw lover

You were just heaven on stilts
You're wobbling
You're wobbling
Now look at my heaven on stilts
It's stumbling
It's tumbling down

I thought that you were stable
Why couldn't you be stable?

How the hell we gonna make it to heaven?

    General Comment:You get into a relationship with someone, and you think they're this wonderful person. Time passes, and you realize they're really...not. You bought into their lies, and then some day, it crumbles, and they fall off their stilts. And you're left wishing they were this ideal person you came up with.
