In a car outside
I idle light tonight
If you're leaving
Just let me know
Tobacco and peppermint
Dusting for fingerprints
A film in her eyes from the glow
Some rules are made with all intentions to break
And she defends it with a warped rational
But I've seen what happens to the wicked and proud
When they decide to try to take on the throne for the crown
And we fall
While we fade
Under hot light
And my body still aches
Wait to grow
Wait to give
For a message
While my body
It leaks like a sieve
When it got cold outside
Devise by candlelight
If you're coming home
Just let me know
Sucking on your breath mints
Dissected and stuck with pins
A film in her eyes from the glow
Concrete and water
She's looking for her daughter
At midnight in torrential downpour
And everything I said about
How messed up your head is
Got cut up and left in little pieces on the cutting room floor
And we fall
While we fade
Under hot light
And my body still aches
Wait to grow
Wait to give
For a message
While my body
It leaks like a sieve
And we fall
While we fade
Under hot light
And my body still aches
Wait to grow
Wait to give
For a message
While my body
It leaks like a sieve
Take the picture from the wall
(And we fall)
Cause you think that nothing matters
(While we fade)
Take the picture from the plane
(Under hot light)
Cause it's a long ways to the floor
(And my body still aches)
Cut your fingers on the edge
(Wait to grow)
Cause it's sharper than they told you
(Wait to give)
Take a leap from out the window
(For a message)
Cause it's way too far to go through the door
(While my body it leaks like a sieve)
Take the picture from the wall
(And we fall)
Cause you think that nothing matters
(And we fade)
Take the picture from the plane
(Under hot light)
Cause it's a long ways to the floor
(And my body still aches)
Cut your fingers on the edge
(Wait to grow)
Cause it's sharper than they told you
(Wait to give)
Take a leap from out the window
(For a message)
Cause it's way too far to go through the door
