lyrics

I thought that I saw you dancing
But I guess you were only passing by
And maybe the light played tricks on me
You move like a silent symphony
And hide in my head; I can’t see
The dreams that you dream are not for me

Beautiful tears running down your face
Lipstick that’s outta place
A car crash in neon light
And I wouldn’t want you any other way

I thought that I heard you laughing
But I bet you were only mapping all
The stars that you shine in my sky
Like a smoke ring that floats around my head
I’m drawing you in with every breath
My lungs are on fire and distressed

Beautiful tears running down your face
Lipstick that’s outta place
A car crash in neon light
And I wouldn’t want you any other way

Don’t cover
Don’t hide away
You’re such a brilliant monster
Don’t cover
Don’t hide away
You’re such a brilliant burst of trouble anyway

Beautiful tears running down your face
Lipstick that’s outta place
A car crash in neon light
And I wouldn’t want you any other way
