Living in a jar, think the lids the sky,
EmC
You're hoping for a savior on your cross outside.

Stars are just a million little fireflies,
EmAm
The sun is just a hole; it is the light outside.
Chorus 1
EmC
Now what took me so long?

Ten years drowning from

darkness in my eyes.

Where you going; let me stay tonight.

Verse 2
EmC
Maybe I should rest but on the seventh day,
EmC
I've created nothing and I'm wide awake,

So can I tie my key to your electric kite?

The rooster crowed twice and you kissed me goodnight.

There's too many saviors on my cross again,

I know I'm never going to be a perfect man.

Everyone's an oyster with their grain of sand,

I love you most and some, now it has to end.
