[Intro]
The night is darker than it seems
But who wants reality?
Truth is extended when you're building dreams
So don't trust what you see

[Verse 1]
Take one: in a room the day dies
And the air gets blue
She puts a record on to cover baby cries

Take two: travels on the dance floor
Take three: she just walks out the door
Close up: a tear in her eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
She's always true when it's time
She can be your partner in crime
A lady in the mist
A man in the night

She can be sweet as sunrise
And any devil in disguise
She'll give love to a kiss
If the angle is right
[Chorus]
Even standing in the light
I'm forever nobody
See me burning bright
For a name in a movie

I live each day in black and white
Keep the color for TV
Hey is it a lie every time I die?

[Verse 2]
Cut: she's with a man, she pours wine
Killer's point of view:
Her naked body from the window, she's divine

One take: in the room 404
Blood all around, corpse on the floor
Do another storyline

[Pre-Chorus]
She's always true when it's time
She can be your partner in crime
A lady in the mist
A man in the night

She can be sweet as sunrise
And any devil in disguise
She'll give love to a kiss
If the angle is right
[Chorus]
Even standing in the light
I'm forever nobody
See me burning bright
For a name in a movie

I live each day in black and white
Keep the color for TV
Hey is it a lie every time I die?

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Even standing in the light
I'm forever nobody
See me burning bright
For a name in a movie

I live each day in black and white
Keep the color for TV
Hey is it a lie every time I die?

Even standing in the light
I'm forever nobody
See me burning bright
For a name in a movie
I live each day in black and white
Keep the color for TV
Hey is it a lie every time I die?
