We burnt out our eyes
Staring at the sunlight

And with that fire in your eyes
Oh darling, you just might become a shooting star
Why do we idolize those beautiful lies
From your silver tongue

Fading off into the night
Got a spark that won't ignite
Give it up, because you're done
A vain and greedy parasite of melancholy appetite
Who feeds off all we love
Falling further out of sight, my vision's turning white
There's no more time
The universe has cast me aside

No place for you to run and hide
This feeling eats away at you, that you've run out of time
No stage for you to play your show
The audience won't wait for you, so just let the cameras roll
Damned if the weight of the world isn't yours alone
With no place to make ourselves at home
No place at all

No place to run at all
No place to run at all
And with that fire in your eyes
Oh darling, you just might become a shooting star
Why do we idolize those beautiful lies
From your silver tongue

And every morning we arrive dressed in our monkey-suits and ties
Like the world is a zoo by design
And at night we contemplate what got us into this state of mind
In the first place

Why can't you see the signs
Why do we refuse to read between the lines
That's how we learn to survive
Why don't we just let loose and let the magic fill our minds

No place for you to run and hide
This feeling eats away at you, that you've run out of time
No stage for you to play your show
The audience won't wait for you, so just let the cameras roll
Damned if the weight of the world isn't yours alone
With no place to make ourselves at home
No place at all

It pays for you to run and hide
This feeling eats away at you, that you've run out of time
No stage for you to put on a show and tell everyone that you know
That the weight of the world is yours alone
With no place to run and hide
No, none at all
At all
