Juliet

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The clock is ticking like the pigeons peck the stairs at the park Your hands are shaking but you're breaking from the crack in your heart Ooh, you wring your hands and you straighten your gown You pray to God that your parents just sleep through the sound [Chorus] There's a nightlight screaming at you The window's open and the wind is rushing through You set your eyes on the dark of the night There's a comet and its flame is burning bright It's getting late and he's running out of time [Verse 2] A noise awakens and the dog next door lets it be own Cacophony of barking takes a somewhat ominous tone You brace your fingers and you summon your might Get on the floor and do your best to stay out of sight Stay out of sight [Chorus] There's a nightlight screaming at you The window's open and the wind is rushing through You set your eyes on the dark of the night There's a comet and its flame is burning bright It's getting late and he's running out of time [Verse 3] Sound of pebbles break the threshold and make piles in your room Another level hits the treble of your sonic boom You steel your courage and you steel your pride You steal your innocence when you accepted the ride Accepted the ride [Chorus] There's a nightlight screaming at you The window's open and the wind is rushing through You got a love and it's way overdue You got a poison burning deep inside of you There's a lick and it's sticking like glue Apothecary only you unlock the clue You set your eyes on the dark of the night There's a comet and its flame is burning bright It's getting late and he's running out of time [Outro] Juliet Juliet Juliet Juliet
