Life used to be life-like Now it's more like showbiz I wake up in the night, and I don't know where the bathroom is and I don't know what town I'm in Or what sky I am under and I wake up in the darkness Don't have the will anymore to wonder Everyone has a skeleton and a closet to keep it in and you're mine Every song has a you, a you that the singer sings to and you're it this time Baby you're it this time When I need to wipe my face, I use the back of my hand and I like to take up space, just because I can and I use my dress to wipe up my drink I care less and less what people think and you are so lame, you know you always disappoint me It's kinda like our running joke But its really not funny I just want you to live up to the image of you I create I see you and I'm so unsatisfied I see you and I dilate So I'll walk the plank, yeah I'll jump with a smile If I'm gonna go down, I'm gonna do it with style and you won't see me surrender, you won't hear me confess Cuz you've left me with nothing But I've worked with less and I learn every room long enough To make it to the door Then I hear it click shut behind me and every key works differently, I forget every time and the forgetting defines me that's what defines me When I say you sucked my brain out The English translation Is I am in love with you, and it is no fun But I don't use words like love, cuz words like that don't matter But don't look so offended You know, you should be flattered I wake up in the night, in some big hotel bed My hands grope for the light My hands grope for my head The world is my oyster The road is my home and I know that I'm better off alone.
