Bright Eyes Lovers Turn Into Monsters Lyrics

Lovers Turn Into Monsters Lyrics

Lovers turn into monsters at the loss of all affection
Almost like it was the
affection that kept them from being monsters
And I could have used some
warning
I was on that porch all morning
Smoking cigarettes and sinking
deeper into doubt
Could it be I am mistaken, have I stolen somebody’s
baby?
Is it possible for two people to need the same thing?
It's just the
lines, they get so blurry
Between what is once, and now required
And I
don't know on which side his heart falls
But I know where mine is
buried
And it's so far from any wanting
Yeah, it needs this to keep
beating
It won't go on without it
If I'm still weighed down with
subtleties
Then I'll just come right out and say
That I think that I
deserve her
More than anyone deserves anything
Maybe I am selfish, but
there is no way to share this
There’s not enough to go around, I
don’t care who else gets hurt
But I’m still sick with empathy
because I was stood in his place
I spent a year quietly dying while he let
go and ignored her
And I’m sure that there are reasons for everything
that happens
And absence leads to adoration, yeah it’s nobody’s
fault
But now there is no way to change this
So I just photographed and
framed it
And it’s hanging in a hallway
That we have no right to
walk back down
But I hope that he feels better but I’m sick of all
the drama
I can’t stand to see her crying, I just want this shit to
end
And I want a place to hang out where record players play out
And
there’s a thousand movies rented for a thousand nights with her
