The bounce effect

You bump your head
but I'm the one bruised

You slit your wrists
but I'm the one bleeding

You fall
but I've got the broken bone

You're speeding
and I'm the one crashing

You're laughing
While I'm crying

I turn on the light
but you're the one shining

I buy the shoes
but you're wearing the heels

I'm standing in front of the fireplace
but you're the one who's feeling warm

Why cant we just hold hands
landing at the same time
and bounce back up
... together
