lyrics

Bright eyes you're scaring me to death
Your little fingers round me neck
I've lost control I'll hold my breath
You know its for the best
I'll keep the light on 'til my end

When you go down
When you go
It's just the same as it was before
Keep it down when I'm not around
My head in the clouds
Don't dream just talk to me
And tell me how you've been
I'm not the same
I only dream in sin
I keep on going round and round

I can't begin to comprehend
What is going through your mind
Don't speak
You'll only make it worse
Don't speak

When you go down
When you go
It's just the same as it was before
Keep it down when I'm not around
My head in the clouds
Don't dream just talk to me
And tell me how you've been
I'm not the same
I only dream in sin
I keep on going round and round

I couldn't help you if I tried
I saw you crying and I cut the line
I'm not the same
No I'm terrified
I keep going round and round

Just talk to me
(It's not heaven but it's better than the things at home)
And tell me how you've been
(But much warmer than the water that I used to know)
I'm not the same, I only dream in sin
(It's not heaven but it's better than the things at home)
I keep on going round and round
(But much warmer than the water that I used to know)

We both go our separate ways
I'll kiss your hair and lie awake
I'll pick a side and there I'll stay
The girls in white have called my name
I'll call it quits
I let you win
But either way I've lost again
