lyrics

Look, the power is out again
and they don’t know when it will be back
At least you’ve got your candles
to keep you company

Oops, I’m disappointed again
I guess that’s just what I get
For letting my expectations
get the best of me

Don’t look back now,
don’t you dare now
‘Cause if you do
I will turn to dust right before your eyes
And then you will be compelled to collect
the remnants of what I once was
Wishing you had made time to apologize

You said: “nothing is real in the end”
But what of the wings that I mend?
I could kill you with the blade inside my pen
Lost all my limbs in the fight
Waging what’s wrong and what’s right
You don’t think I will, but I might I might.

Look, the feeling is gone again,
that is if it was here at all
I keep my window open
just in case it calls

Oops, I’m in love again
I guess that’s just what I get
For letting you cut me open
to look inside my chest

Look ahead now, watch your step now
‘Cause if you don’t you may end up
belly up on your back
And then a crowd of ignorant people will surround you
Waiting for you to react

You said: “nothing is real in the end”
But what of the wings that I mend?
I could kill you with the blade inside my pen
Lost all my limbs in the fight
Waging what’s wrong and what’s right
You don’t think I will, but I might I might.
