I was lying in bed when the fools came around They lined up all in unison and let out a horrible sound And it rang in my ears and I said "Hey, what's this now?" And so I looked out the window and they stopped fooling about They started singing a lovely tune that i've never heard And I saw you dancing on a lonely street, holding onto my words So I ran out of my bedroom, right out through the door Just in time to see you standing in the front row with remorse And I glided a hand down your cheek and I said "Hey, what's this for?" And the voices that fogged my mind were your clever retort And I started singing along with them and I never even knew How that song went; the words just came right out of the blue And I finally realized as you walked out That I never knew what we were all about We were not singing, the words were just falling out of our mouths (Our mouths) Our mouths... You know I hate it when you look that way Don't cross my name out and hope I stay I'm always hearing your father say "You better love loving and you better behave" I never wanted it to be like that Reiterate and find a new format So lift me up and hope to die Before they drag me back into light You know I hate it when you look that way Don't cross my name out and hope I stay I'm always hearing your father say "You better love loving and you better behave" I never wanted it to be like that Reiterate and find a new format So lift me up and hope to die Before they drag me back into light (You know I hate it when you look that way) (Don't cross my name out and hope I stay) I was walking around some old childhood street (I'm always hearing your father say) ("You better love loving and you better behave") Sometime after 6AM with a pulse in my feet (I never wanted it to be like that) (Reiterate and find a new format) I stumbled upon a bunch of words and I said "Hey, what's this mean?" (So lift me up and hope to die) (Before they drag me back into light) But then I switched them around and found a different meaning (You know I hate it when you look that way) (Don't cross my name out and hope I stay) I saw your face in the letters as they glowed a new light (I'm always hearing your father say) ("You better love loving and you better behave") Then I looked around to find it was suddenly night (I never wanted it to be like that) (Reiterate and find a new format) I felt your hand touch my arm and you said "Look, this ain't right..." (So lift me up and hope to die) (Before they drag me back into light) And the kiss you pulled me into truly opened my eyes They all started singing along with us, but they couldn't even see How truly broken a bond like this could ever really be And I finally realize as you walk back out That I may not ever know what this is all about Because we are not singing, the words are just falling out of our mouths (Our mouths) Our mouths... Our mouths... Our mouths...
