The Killers - Mr. Brightside Lyrics

Mr. Brightside Lyrics
━

[Verse]
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
And I just can’t look; it’s killing me
They’re 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 Bridge]

[Verse]
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
They’re taking control

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Outro]
I never…
I never…
I never…
I never…
