SONG LYRICS

Six hours and I feel the same
Black powder and acid rain
What’s a girl to do?
Be as sweet as you
I have to go

You said you’re drunk, I said I know
You said you think I’m gonna want you drive home
I’ve made a list
I think you owe me this
What do you know?

If you close your eyes and listen to what’s right outside your door
You won’t be giving in

Go ahead, just cover it up
Let’s pretend we’re ordinary
We could be in heaven
But it’s never enough
It’s mine
If the world’s so mysterious
How can we be ordinary?
Everything is easy
Everybody is stuck
And that’s fine

Cracked mirror brings seven years
But your luck never disappears
You’ll be history
If future disagrees
Take me home

What do you want?
What do you need?
It is hard to separate the goodness and the greed
When the walls cave in
We share our ripped skin
And then we brawl

If you close your mind to what’s happening right outside your door
You’re only giving in

Go ahead, just cover it up
Let’s pretend we are ordinary
We could be in heaven
But it’s never enough
It’s mine

How far? How long?
Till this road’s overgrown
What now? Be strong
There must be something going on
Somebody has to know, somebody has to know
Nobody wants to know
They got it all

Go ahead, just cover it up
Let’s pretend we’re ordinary
We could be in heaven
But it’s never enough
It’s mine
If the world’s so mysterious
How can we be ordinary?
Everything is easy
Everybody is stuck
And that’s fine
