We'll Take the Morning

We knew it was over before it had begun
The way she held her wallet
The way he grabbed the gun

At any given moment
Before the night was sunk
Half the room was bored and sober
The other half was bored and drunk

And the girl is chaste
But look who's chasing
Blind celebrity
She's a rube for royalty

In a crown of plastic jewels they'll be adorning
Tonight belongs to them
We'll take the morning

Empty as a promise
Nothing left to hide
Fake it like you're busy
But you're outta love and pride

Party friends are pretty
And leave you in the dirt
Baby's got the vapors
She'll numb it where it hurts

And she'll never dare to speak the truth
To the lies you'll glorify
When she opens up her eyes

To the casual perjury they'll be suborning
Tonight belongs to them
We'll take the morning

A cartoon's in the dressing room
And he's got the code

Hold tight to the ones you love
Forget the debt you're owed

Prophet or a profiteer
Gonna Rule by fear
Night falls on the right and wrong
Don't wanna disappear

And she'll never dare to speak the truth
To the lies you'll glorify
When she opens up her eyes

To the casual perjury they'll be suborning
Tonight belongs to them
We'll take the morning
