She keeps a flower beside the bed
And always sleeps with the lights on
She's looking 'round for a better bet
And always finding the same one
She says ooh
The screen is selling reality
But not the one in the mirror
We measure what we can get for free
And buy the words to see clearer
She's singing ooh
We're running out of time
We see ourselves in lights
And we can lie to justify the fights
Ooh girl, the camera chases
You girl, your stolen graces
Soon girl, you have to face this
And time erases
She's keeping notes in a letter box
And counting cracks in the tiles
The lines they give her are not enough
To fill the cracks in her smiles
She says ooh
We're running out of time
We see ourselves in lights
And we can lie to justify the fights
Ooh girl, the camera chases
You girl, your stolen graces
Soon girl, you have to face this
And time erases
We're running out of time
We see ourselves in lights
And we can lie to justify the fights
Ooh girl, the camera chases
You girl, your stolen graces
Soon girl, you have to face this
And time erases
She keeps a flower beside the bed
And always sleeps with the lights on
She keeps a flower beside the bed
And always sleeps with the lights on
She keeps a flower beside the bed
And always sleeps with the lights on
She keeps a flower beside the bed
And always sleeps with the lights on
