What is this we’re looking at? Can we put it in a frame? The fact that everything is our fault, Is too much to bear So we’ll pin it all on luck.
And you said; well, someone’s taking all the blame now, But it won’t be me! How do you expect me to get to sleep? If I can’t keep my conscience clean.
Well if you’ve seen enough that’s haunting, love. Just try and keep those eyes open wide, from The dreams that are keeping you up at night You know the one that makes you shake.
But if those eyes get hungry, Oh and you know that they will. Well news is on its way cause The paper gets printed every morning, And it will be waiting at your door
But before you go and read it, love You should keep your nose from the page Cause all that ink is poison and when it dries It leaves the bite behind
And I don’t care what some column says The stars don’t hold no future Cause if they knew everything They would know they were already dead.
So stop wishing on them, darlin’ They don’t know that they’re liars and they’ll still sparkle at every wish that you make But I know it’s hard to handle, love When you learn that the truth was all lies But there are some things so blatantly clear That you cannot hide your ears from forever And someday soon, they will hear
Well it might make me a monster, love But I’ll stand in the sun And I’ll put everything that I’ve done Resting at my feet And with my hands and my mouth I’ll scream you this song Oh, just to grab your attention
And while I’m glowing over What I’ve done Then maybe you’ll see then I’m not the only one And that maybe we’re all monsters in our own way I know, I know love it’s so disappointing To say it out loud
Well my monster my love At night we’ll hide under all the covers And in the day light we’ll hide deep in the closets Cause that’s were we’re all living anyway
