Bright Mouths - Electric President

I see you in my head and eye

Your eyes are vacant and your mouth is bright

And all you say are things that I don’t want to hear

So I smash my hands against my broken ears

We are the thoughts that you were warned about

We are the shadows in your basement

When you say doomsday we say everything’s alright

But it’s all the same

Get yourself a number

Oh we’ve been watchin' you sleep

We know your tricks, we know all your bad habits

We know your secrets, we know where your loss

We sneak into your closet and have dinner with the skeletons

All along you’ve been asking, «what's wrong with me?»

All along you’ve been asking, «what's wrong with me?»

All along you’ve been living your predicament

Saying you were innocent but what’s that got to do with us?

We are the cracks in all you dream about

We are the noises in your attic

We are the people you were warned about

We are the monsters in your closet

Now it’s fine

Your hopes;

you’re just like us

Yeah, you’re just like us

It’s fine

Your prayers;

you’re broke like us

Yeah, you’re broke like us

We watch you when you’re asleep

We hear as you grind your teeth

We’re always waiting smells but they’re never what they seem

You run when you’re awake but they still kill ya when you dream
