Lyrics

Bottle Episodes

We're living in some famous shadows
And don't know if light will bend this way
It's either antiseptic or it's blinding
It changes from day to day
Trying to pick the perfect moment
For your entrance on the walk of shame
But with so much to remember
We will always come in slightly late
Here inside the TV glow
Of these bottle episodes

Shouldn't have to wait so long
For everything to make some sense, I say
But when you're dancing with the devil
You don't get to pick the song they play
As you're swaying side to side
Underneath invasion lights

There should be a word for this, yeah
There should be a word for this, yeah
With our command of all the romantic languages
With our command of all the romantic languages

Seen you with some famous shadows
Not familiar, but I've seen the names
And the two-way mirrors on the ceiling
Stretch them into funhouse shapes
Here inside the TV glow
Of these bottle episodes

Hiding in some famous shadows
It's a jump scare, you can only wait
And with so much to remember
We will always come in slightly late
Here inside the TV glow
Of these bottle episodes

There should be a word for this, yeah
There should be a word for this, yeah
With our command of all the romantic languages
With our command of all the romantic languages

With our command of all the romantic languages
With our command of all the romantic languages
With our command of all the romantic languages
With our command of all the romantic languages

Hiding in some famous shadows
It's a jump scare, you can only wait
But with so much to remember
We will always come in slightly late
