Left here right in the dark
Till I turn the corner
Try to make a new start
Ain't getting any warmer
You've got a cool heart
Icicles falling
The points are so sharp

The next one's gonna be the best one
Catch your attention
Better than the ocean

Left here right in the dark
Not a clue to my name
You sit and throw darts
I'm aching in pain
And my open heart
You've got a new flame
Don't think they're so smart

The first time I saw you
On the bar line
Coming out of my mind
Thinking about your new find

So tell me baby
What's his name?
Speak to me honey
Or are you ashamed?
A little uneasy
A little in pain?

I see you there
The perfect pair
How could you dare?
I've been framed

Lights out everybody hide
Just pretend that nobody died
Close your eyes and let it slide
Plug your ears you won't hear us collide

There's a live wire burning
In my front tire
Dreaming like a magpie
Going in a landpile

So tell me baby
What's his name?
Speak to me honey
Or are you ashamed?
A little uneasy
A little in pain?

I see you there
The perfect pair
How could you dare?
I've been framed

How disgusting

Left here right in the dark
Left in the dark
We're out in the dark
I'm left here
Hey baby, we're going nowhere
