Lyrics

All you've been asking for's been placed in front of you
The headaches, the shaking, the boredom the boardroom brings
You're scratching at itching brought by the spiders beneath your skin
The answer in question is over before it begins

Hey there sleepy smile
I see you've brought your bedroom eyes
Not assuming you wanna keep 'em
I'm assuming you reckon you won't

All you've been asking for's been placed in front of you
The headaches, the shaking, the boredom the boardroom brings
You're scratching at itching brought by the spiders beneath your skin
The answer in question is over before it begins

Hey there sleepy smile
I see you've brought your bedroom eyes
Not assuming you wanna keep 'em
I'm assuming you reckon you won't

Nothing to see here but the rain
There's nothing to hold you but the flames
Nothing to see here but the rain
There's nothing to hold you but the flames
Nothing to see here but the rain
There's nothing to hold you but the flames
Nothing to see here but the rain
It's raining flames

Earth to sleepy smile
Where'd you take those bedroom eyes?
Not assuming you wanna keep 'em
I'm assuming you reckon you won't
