Smile, You've Won

Once because we always were there
I'm impressed you've never seemed so scared
And you still don't know
But I found comfort in this bottle and you
Out of sight, out of mind and nowhere close to being
Sober straight I've seen that look in me
Don't ever let me see those words on your lips
It's just me, it's just me
So yeah, yeah, well now it's peace in the form of a dove
And yeah, yeah, it's peace and love or just whatever goes down easily
Consuming our bodies
It's your fight this night

What the hell's it to me? (Sky and buildings, lay so neatly)
You still are what I think
Keep those pictures around (Calm that leaves me safely dreaming)
Just to stay awake
And we wait for winter
And now we wait forever
And now we wait forever

It was desire represented by a ring with an angel
I stayed until you fell asleep
But yeah, you fell for me
And lost the ring, so I hope there's still
A piece of me upon your bedroom floor
Where you curl up at night
This nicotine is your air, is your air
Stay to the face but feelings go over your head

Once the sleep comes, it's over
So both of us saw what it was (and we wait for winter)
Everything you were, everything (and now we wait forever)
A favorite of my dreams (and now we wait forever)
You've seen all that is me
So sure you should take that
It's one more mile, just the same (and we wait for winter)
A favorite of my dreams (and now we wait forever)
You've seen all that is me (and now we wait forever)

(Some say that kings fall from grace)
So now we sit like kings amongst this
Crowd is gone so speak to me

What the hell's it to me? (Sky and buildings, lay so neatly)
You still are what I think
Keep those pictures around (Calm that leaves me safely dreaming)
Just to stay awake

So, some nights she still charms her way out
And hopes to leave with a morning of sleep
