Lost your credit card in the bar
Leave the keys up on the kitchen table
Then the silence in the car
And I don’t know any more.....
Run me over just like a train
So sour in the early morning rain
Nothing’s ever gonna be the same
And I don’t know any more.....
A million dollar smile ... That says “Stay for a while
If you stay too long ... I’ll hurt you.”
Because the universe That’s sucking all of us in
Is just like it’s always been .....
Can’t look away ... Can’t look away ....
Can’t look away .... Don’t look away....
Down to the shore .... Down to the bay....
A million dollar smile - that says “Stay for a while...
A million dollar smile ………
She said “We’re all just all dead men walking free.”
“Don’t you kick yourself, because it’s complicated.”
“It’s just a question of degree...”
“Forget tomorrow and let it go ..”
Wiped my memories, changed my face ...
And I changed my name - when I left this place ...
Now it’s cold and it's 3am
And I don’t know any more ..
A million dollar smile ... That says “Stay for a while
If you stay too long ... I’ll hurt you.”
Because the universe That’s sucking all of us in
Is just like it’s always been .....
Can’t look away ... Can’t look away ....
Can’t look away .... Don’t look away....
Down to the shore .... Down to the bay....
A million dollar smile - that says “Stay for a while...
A million dollar smile ………
On and on and on and on.....
On and on and on and on.....
A million dollar smile ... That says “Stay for a while
If you stay too long ... I’ll hurt you.”
Because the universe That’s sucking all of us in
Is just like it’s always been .....
Can’t look away ... Can’t look away ....
Can’t look away .... Don’t look away....
Down to the shore .... Down to the bay....
A million dollar smile - that says “Stay for a while...
A million dollar smile ………
A million dollar smile ... That says “Stay for a while
If you stay too long ... I’ll hurt you.”
Because the universe That’s sucking all of us in
Is just like it’s always been .....
Can’t look away ... Can’t look away ....
Can’t look away .... Don’t look away....
Down to the shore .... Down to the bay....
A million dollar smile - that says “Stay for a while...
A million dollar smile ………
