It Started sweet, September
Long descent I remember
But how we got here can't recall
Don't know that I can rightly say
There could have been a better way
Except it don't feel right at all
Like a ticking in your brain
Only inches from insane
Like the (looking glass) that swallows you in dreams
And the fevers risin higher
You can't help but fuel the fire
Because nothing is as simple as it seems
One of us- drew the short end
And one of us is playin pretend
There's a monster livin underneath the bed
Leanin on the weight of what was never said
And all our little lies are keeping him fed
Cuz two can keep a secret
When the love is dead
Like spiders just beneath the skin
You wish the walls were caving in
To match the madness in your mind
Locked ourselves in for safety's sake
That was our first and last mistake
We left a clean escape behind
Like a ticking in your brain
Only inches from insane
Like the looking glass that swallows you in sleep
And the fevers risin higher
You can't help but fuel the fire
One of us can't keep up pretend
If we're not gonna break one of us has gotta bend
There's a monster livin' underneath the bed
Leanin' on the weight of what was never said
And all our little lies are keeping him fed
Cuz two can keep a secret
When the love is dead
