Mr. Brightside

[Verse 1]

Coming out of my cage and I've been doing just fine

Gotta gotta be down because I want it all

It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?

It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss

Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab

While he's having a smoke and she's taking a drag

Now they're going to bed and my stomach is sick

And it's all in my head, but she's touching his

[Pre-Chorus]

Chest now, he takes off her dress now

Let me go

I just can't look, it's killing me

And 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, 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]

I'm coming out of my cage and I've been doing just fine

Gotta gotta be down because I want it all

It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?

(It was only a kiss), it was only a kiss

Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab

While he's having a smoke and she's taking a drag

Now they're going to bed and my stomach is sick

And it's all in my head, but she's touching his

[Pre-Chorus]

Chest now, he takes off her dress now

Let me go

'Cause I just can't look, it's killing me

And 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, 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside

[Outro]

I never

I never

I never

I never
