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 chest now
He takes off her dress now
Letting me go
And I just can't look
It's killing me
It's taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Twirling 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.
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

And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head

Open up my eager eyes:
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside.
I never..
I never..
I never..
