Lyrics

In the morning I'll be
Too tired to wake
From counting the constellations
I renamed
One for every mistake
They're all named after you

I've acquired a taste
For making the same mistakes
Because baby I'm a mess
You don't want to clean up
You said you've had enough
We won't be eighteen much longer
This keeps getting harder

Eyes like a target
Is all you've become
You're second hand smoke
To a lover's lung
You're killing me now
You're killing me now
A saint without sin
And a diamond ring
Pawned for lust

And a broken dream
You're killing me now
You're killing me now

Telling me that it's all over
Try and hold your so close
While looking over my shoulder
Too many nights that I've been sober
Will you fade away
Cause we just got older
So break down
And make a scene
We'll make all the papers
And magazines
And they'll forecast your mood
On the ten o'clock news

Eyes like a target
A fist with a gun
Like second hand smoke
To a lover's lung
You're killing me now
You're killing me now
One last kiss to leave me senseless
If not pretty, just make this painless
One last kiss, to leave me out
