we've got a big big mess

"Take the stairs to the first bedroom you see on your left
squeeze her hand tell her you’re there, let her know that you care
empty words and compliments, whatever it takes to take off her dress
heavy breathing, lights are off, tell her lies hide you’re a mess

it’s all wrong, oh it’s all wrong

with these empty boys and empty girls, empty toys and empty worlds
and you’ve never felt this more alone, crying to your best friend on the phone
oh what a mess

ignore the stares from the eyes of the others on the side
hold your gorgeous head up high, cover your ears and block the lies
and rumour has it, that i’m a closet headcase
and sticks and stones may break my bones but words will hurt forever

I’ll lay awake and stop to think, my own mistakes took just a blink

my mouth tastes of a lack of control, lips taste of regret leave me alone
my mouth tastes of a lack of control, lips taste of regret leave me alone

with these empty boys and empty girls, empty toys and empty worlds
and you’ve never felt this more alone, crying to your best friend on the phone
oh what a mess"
