Coming out of my cage, and I've been doing just fine

Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all

It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?

It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss

Now I'm falling asleep, and she's calling a cab

While he's having a smoke, and she's taking a drag

Now they're going to bed and my stomach is sick

And it's all in my head, but she's touching his

Chest now, he takes off her dress now

Let me go

I just can't look, it's killing me

And taking control

Jealousy, turning saints into the sea

Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis

But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me

Open up my eager eyes, 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside

I'm coming out of my cage, and I've been doing just fine

Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all

It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?

(It was only a kiss), it was only a kiss

Now I'm falling asleep, and she's calling a cab

While he's having a smoke, and she's taking a drag

Now they're going to bed and my stomach is sick

And it's all in my head, but she's touching his

Chest now, he takes off her dress now

Let me go

And I just can't look, it's killing me

And taking control

Jealousy, turning saints into the sea

Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis

But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me

Open up my eager eyes, 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside

I never

I never

I never

I never
