Glow

When my talking is twisted And I turn my body to you Are these sentences scripted? Is the camera in the room? You're a nighttime collector Watching days flip by on the couch While a big-shot director Holds your next move in his mouth

Trumpet swells, ticket's turning gold And all the actors, they were laughing While the credits start to roll Lift the spell Darlin', you said we'd make it big before we're old

But we're never gonna happen Oh, no, never gonna, never gonna We're never gonna happen No, no, never, ever, ever gonna Zoom in on the action Get a little glow We're never gonna happen No, no, never gonna

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Will you tell me what is this? Just a practice round of the game? Lean in for the big kiss While the world bursts into flames As if somebody planned it From a big mid-century house Of glass and granite With a giant moat to keep the people out

Hold on tight (to you) Darlin' we're doomed to swimming laps In a martini glass the size of my bedroom Moth to light Let me make my name Before you pour me down the drain

But we're never gonna happen Oh, no, never gonna, never gonna We're never gonna happen No, no, never, ever, ever gonna Zoom in on the action Get a little glow We're never gonna happen No, no, never gonna

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh But we're never gonna happen Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
