Mr. Brightside Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Comin' out of my cage
Doin' just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Want it all
It started out with a kiss
Did it end up like this?
Only a kiss
It was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep
She's calling a cab
While he's havin' a smoke
She's takin' a drag
And they're goin' to bed
My stomach is sick
It's all in my head
[Pre-Chorus]
She's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
I just can't look
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 tonight
Comin' out of my cage
Doin' just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Want it all
It started out with a kiss
Did it end up like this?
Only a kiss
It was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep
She's calling a cab
While he's havin' a smoke
She's takin' a drag
And they're goin' to bed
My stomach is sick
It's all in my head
[Pre-Chorus]
She's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
I just can't look
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 tonight
[Bridge]
I never
I never
I never
I never
(Oh I never)
[Chorus]
Jealousy
Turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies (Oh I never)
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay (Oh I never)
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes (Oh I never)
I'm Mr. Brightside tonight ('Cause I never)
[Verse 2]
Comin' out of my cage
I am doin' just fine
Gotta gotta be down
I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
I never
I never
I never
I never
(Oh I never)
[Chorus]
Jealousy
Turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies (Oh I never)
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay (Oh I never)
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes (Oh I never)
I'm Mr. Brightside tonight ('Cause I never)
[Verse 2]
Comin' out of my cage
I am doin' just fine
Gotta gotta be down
I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
[Outro]
I never
I never
I never
I never
I never
I never
