It's Friday night and I am alone In a derelict club and I want to go home But then I see a face from a long time ago It wakes me up from my half-drunk low
I pull myself up to follow this ghost And wait next door whilst she powders her nose But then I hear the voice of some other boy I can't see how this girl got so old
Sarah, you've got me going backwards Losing my reputation for being heartless But I'll lie next to you in the hospital Keep you sane between these white walls
I never thought I'd see you broken So long since we'd spoken We were young back then But I've never seen a ruin like you before Never seen a wreck so beautiful
Look at this mess Look at this mess Oh what will your parents say? (Your parents say) (Your parents say)
Oh Sarah, I don't know where to begin Too many nights spent on Ketamine Or anything you could get your hands on You spend your hours in Mitte cafes Discussing Frida Kahlo and wasting days Reading dull magazines Who's in and who's out Yeah you're a model but you don't sieh gut aus
Sarah, you've got me going backwards Losing my reputation for being heartless But I'll lie next to you in the hospital I'll keep you sane between these white walls I never thought I'd see you broken So long since we'd spoken We were young back then But I've never seen a ruin like you before Never seen a wreck so beautiful
Look at this mess Look at this mess Oh what will your parents say? What will your parents say? (Your parents say) (Your parents say)
Oh, look at this mess Look at your dress Look at this mess Go, look at this dress Oh what will your parents say? (Your parents say)
Sarah, you've got me going backwards Losing my reputation for being heartless But I've never seen a ruin like you before Never seen a wreck so beautiful
