Carried away all night long Leave the windows open, leave the TV on Try not to wake the talking heads The couch is warm but too short for your long legs I told a lie I told a lie I saw my mouth was moving, I don't know why Follow the slow siren song I am open to it only when I'm alone The saltwater sting far from shore Full of brackish blood I'm not an island anymore I'm ready now I told a lie I told a lie I saw my mouth was moving I don't know why I made it up I made it up And all of my excuses are great enough Phony little houses I'm waiting in the yard You're watching from the window I'm hiding in the covers I find All ready now All right
