The Killers - Mr. Brightside Lyrics

I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all

It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
It was only a kiss

Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag

Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head

But she's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go

And I just can't look it's killing me
And taking control

Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis

But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
â€~Cause I'm Mr. Brightside

I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all

It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
It was only a kiss

Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag

Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head

But she's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go

â€~Cause I just can't look it's killing me
And taking control

Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis

But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
â€~Cause I'm Mr. Brightside

I never
I never
I never
I never

  to me since im a girl.. i think about me liking this boy then once i tell someone i like him that person turns around and asks him out knowing i liked him. ...ugh i feel so bad :( this is true by the way! i dont know if it would be called heartbroken because he couldnt break my heart if we werent even going out....i dk. but this song reminds me so much of wht happened!

  To me this song is a story about a guy who loves this girl and is watching her with her boyfriend. He wants to look away, but he can't make himself leave...... He's jealous, but he can't make himself go talk to her, or even get near her.
