The moonlight is calling your attention And I don't think I can make a sound The champagne is dry
I heard the cry of what might have been The shine atop the air like the stars in the sky And you don't want to say a word I'm gonna show you what's on my mind
A stitch, a touch, a splash of lemonade On a sunny day, where the kids will go out to play
Shut off this broken heart I'm so scared of the things you'll never know I put all of my faith in a dial tone Fixing to be their right You know they won't (x2)
The sunlight is commanding your affection And my eyes won't leave the ground The champagne is dry
I heard the cries from inside your skin The shell that top the air like a scarlet when she tried And you don't want to say a word The eulogy is all mine
A snitch, a clutch, a way to spot a hand grenade On a sunny day, where the kids will go out to play
Shut off this broken heart I'm so scared of the things you'll never know I put all of my faith in a dial tone Fixing to be their right You know they won't (x2)
Welcome to society's idea of a perfect family With a love straight from a fairy tale And two perfect little kids Take a seat, sit right down, and welcome to all of the lies The attention, the guilt, the hate, the unspoken misery The cheating, faking, hiding, pretending Neglecting the meaning, the fighting The resentment, the drugs, the abuse Have a seat, get uncomfortable, and enjoy the show
A stitch, a touch, a splash of lemonade On a sunny day, where the kids will go out to play
Shut off this broken heart I'm so scared of the things you'll never know I put all of my faith in a dial tone Fixing to be their right You know they won't (x2)
