You're quiet tonight
As you scream in the kitchen
We keep all the demons alive
Speaking our minds but don't listen
A man in the sky
A girl of the ocean
I search for the stars in your eyes
Everything dies without them
Oh, but what do lovers do on their islands?
Sit around and suffer in silence?
Have a strong premonition that life isn't
Meant for the ones who can't handle the fire
These are hard times, telling white lies
I'm here smiling in all your photographs
I'm just wishing I could say the words, wishing I could say the words
These are hard times, but I don't cry
I'm here laughing with a broken heart
Don't you say we're good and make it worse
Why won't you just say the words?
Can you open me up
And I'll return the favor
Bring out the teeth and a knife
Kiss and then bite it better
(Yeah) I think we belong
In an asylum
'Cause maybe I'm losing your mind
And you're losing mine
Forever
Oh but what do lovers do in asylums?
Sit around and suffer in silence?
Have a strong premonition that life isn't
Meant for the ones who can't handle the fire
These are hard times, telling white lies
I'm here smiling in all your photographs
I'm just wishing I could say the words
Wishing I could say the words
These are hard times, but I don't cry
I'm here laughing with a broken heart
Don't you say we're good and make it worse
Why won't you just say the words?
Hard times, and I don't cry
I'm here laughing with a broken heart
Don't you say we're good and make it worse
Why won't you just say the words?
Hard times, and I don't cry
I'm here laughing with a broken heart
I'm just wishing I could say the words
Wishing I could say the words
