Head's too close to the ceiling of a basement bar You're too far in Get yourself out Who can you trust? When you lust after desire itself You must get yourself out
Hey girl, you said we gotta get outta here But should I be following you? You got the look of painted, broken china
Why do you go blind each time you look at yourself? Everybody can see that you've got private eyes Fall into the arms of being somebody else Anybody can see that you've got Beautiful, private eyes
So, I draw a door with my finger on the basement wall When we walk through, where do we go? It's easy to make the mistake of thinking nothing is real But I know Everything goes Everything goes
Why do you go blind each time you look at yourself? Everybody can see that you've got private eyes Fall into the arms of being somebody else Anybody can see that you've got Beautiful, private eyes
A mirror on the table and a mirror on the wall You know you're gonna hurt yourself whichever way you fall You're doing what you're able And they label it your all It's a miracle you're standing, and you handle it at all A mirror on the table and a mirror on the wall You know you're gonna hurt yourself whichever way you fall You're trying every night, but you just can't get it right
Why do you go blind each time you look at yourself? Everybody can see that you've got private eyes Fall into the arms of being somebody else Anybody can see that you've got Beautiful, private eyes
