Mr. Brightside Lyrics
[Verse]
Coming out of my cage and I've been doing just fine
Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all
It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke and she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed and my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head, but she's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go (Let me go)
[Pre-Chorus]
I just can't look, it's killing me
And taking control
[Chorus]
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes, 'causе I'm Mr. Brightside
[Drop 1]
She's touching his chest now, hе takes off her dress now
Let me go (Let me go)
Coming out of my cage and I've been doing just fine
Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all
It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke and she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed and my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head, but she's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go (Let me go)
[Pre-Chorus]
I just can't look, it's killing me
And taking control
[Chorus]
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes, 'causе I'm Mr. Brightside
[Drop 1]
She's touching his chest now, hе takes off her dress now
Let me go (Let me go)
[Pre-Chorus]
I just can't look, it's killing me
And taking control
[Chorus]
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes, 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside
[Pre-Drop]
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside
[Drop 2]
I never
I never
I just can't look, it's killing me
And taking control
[Chorus]
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes, 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside
[Pre-Drop]
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside
[Drop 2]
I never
I never
