Mr. Brightside Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Coming out of my cage, I'm been doing just fine
Gotta, gotta be down, I want it all
It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
Only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab
He's having a smoke and she's taking a drag
They're going to bed and my stomach is sick
It's all in my head, but she's touching his
[Pre-Chorus]
Chest now, he takes off her dress now
Let me, let me go
I just can't look, because it's killing me
And it's 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, I'm Mr. Brightside
I'm Mr. Brightside
Mr. Brightside
[Verse 2]
Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab
He's having a smoke and she's taking a drag
They're going to bed and my stomach is sick
It's all in my head
Coming out of my cage, I'm been doing just fine
Gotta, gotta be down, I want it all
It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
Only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab
He's having a smoke and she's taking a drag
They're going to bed and my stomach is sick
It's all in my head, but she's touching his
[Pre-Chorus]
Chest now, he takes off her dress now
Let me, let me go
I just can't look, because it's killing me
And it's 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, I'm Mr. Brightside
I'm Mr. Brightside
Mr. Brightside
[Verse 2]
Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab
He's having a smoke and she's taking a drag
They're going to bed and my stomach is sick
It's all in my head
[Chorus]
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimmin' through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes, I'm Mr. Brightside
I'm Mr. Brightside
I'm Mr. Brightside
I am Mr. Brightside
You can call be Brightside
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimmin' through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes, I'm Mr. Brightside
I'm Mr. Brightside
I'm Mr. Brightside
I am Mr. Brightside
You can call be Brightside
