lyrics

This champagne tastes better in the dark
We’re better off so far
Is that what you said?

It’s a railway yard
Between the head and the heart
Is that what you meant?

You
Always wanted more time
To understand why
The light didn’t shine on you

But I
I’m tired of being right
Every time the sky
Cracks open a star for you

It’s a traffic jam
Between the heart and the hand
So get off when you can

Cause it’s a sentence or death
Between a lie and a breath
That you’re battling with

You
Always wanted more time
To understand why
The light didn’t shine on you

But I
I’m tired of being right
Every time the sky
Cracks open a star for you

This champagne tastes better in the dark
You’re better off so far
Is that what you said?
