lyrics

There's something to how you do what you do,
To pull me in,
And it's no trick or treat that I know,
From where I've been,
And it's alright, it's okay,
Just you tell me when to scream,
And I'll come to the edge,
Of this dream.

I wanna give you a surprise,
I wanna open up your eyes,
Oh let me brighten up your skies,
There are no accidental lies.
Though it's all been said before,
Yet we still come back for more,
Because it's the rock and the paper,
The scissors that take her,
Away from what she knows.
Then it's the melody maker,
The one that would shake her,
Out of her comfort zone.
And declare,
There's not a moment to spare.

X's and O's, misty eyes, runny nose,
We know it well,
Trembling lips, furrowed brow, creeky hips,
This mini hell,
But it's alright, it's okay,
Just you tell me when to leave,
And I'll run to the edge,
Of this dream.

I wanna give you a surprise,
I wanna open up your eyes,
Oh let me brighten up your skies,
There are no accidental lies.
Though it's all been said before,
In this trepidatious score,
Because it's the rock and the paper,
The scissors that take her,
Away from what she knows.
Then it's the melody maker,
The one that would shake her,
Out of her comfort zone.
And declare,
There's not a moment to spare.

There's something to how you do what you do,
What you do...

I wanna give you a surprise,
I wanna open up your eyes,
Oh let me brighten up your skies,
There are no accidental lies.
Though it's all been said before,
And my heart is getting sore,
Because it's the rock and the paper,
The scissors that take her,
Away from what she knows.
Then it's the melody maker,
The one that would shake her,
Out of her comfort zone.
And declare,
There's not a moment to spare.
