Lyrics
You think you know me, you don?t have a grip. You think I owe you well get over it. You want to be there but you just don?t fit. You?ve got to believe that there?s more to it. You talk for hours; don?t know what you said. Don?t even know why you get out of bed. Look, it was great for a moment. Then those same old ugly demons raised their heads. It?s gonna be a long night. Nobody?s gonna sleep tonight. Gonna be a knock down, drag out fight. And there?s just no way of telling. If we?ll be here come the morning light. Where do you get off saying stuff like that. Film at eleven and your lies are facts. And nothing you can ever do can take it back. So don?t make your money climbing on my back. Don?t try to tell me you?re just wondering if. It?s not a story, it?s just over with. Look, it was great for a moment. Then those same old ugly demons raised their heads. It?s gonna be a long night. Nobody?s gonna sleep tonight. Gonna be a knock down, drag out fight. And there?s just no way of telling. If we?ll be here come the morning light.
