Electric President - Bright Mouths

I see you in my head at night
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 watching you sleep
We know your tricks
We know all your bad habits
We know your secrets
We know why you're lost
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 what 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 despite your hopes, you're just like us
Yeah, you're just like us
Now despite your prayers, you're broke like us
Yeah, you're broke like us

They watch you when you're asleep
They hear as you grind your teeth
They're always wearing smiles but they're never what they seem
You can run when you're awake, but they still get you when you dream
