Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

Is this all just window dressing
With the flowers we have stolen
Might be the reason why
At night I sleep with all the windows open
As we are
Lighting up like sparks
Burning harsh but tender
Reinventing the dark
Fever won't last forever
I'm glad I never wondered
Why lightning never follows thunder

So go put out the fire
If they haven't done it yet
Sorrows in my veins
Spilled on paper with regret
How come you never pondered
To be a spark when it's somber

Is this all just window dressing
With the flowers we have stolen
I'm just trying to be a little less worse
Might be the reason why
At night I sleep with all the windows open
I'm just trying to be a little less worse
All the time

So you told me that you're worried
Don't you know that I've always been?
Drunken lies and tired eyes
Make so much fucking sense
I'm glad I never wondered
Why lightning never follows thunder

How come you've never pondered
To be a spark when it's somber
Please don't wait no longer
I wanna live throughout this summer

Is this all just window dressing
With the flowers we have stolen
I'm just trying to be a little less worse
Might be the reason why
At night I sleep with all the windows open
I'm just trying to be a little less worse
All the time
