Faster Faster - Matchsticks Don't Make Men lyrics

rate me

She sits alone at this café

Never looking over her shoulder

But feeling every change

This scene is all but picture perfect

Is it worth it?

As the bartender pours you

Another drink you sit and think:

Should I lock eyes with a stranger

Just to feel his sense of danger?

As I enter from stage right

Behind a painted face she's screaming

"I'm not an optimist!"

Keep it up, keep it up

You'll find something to smile about

They don't notice you

Your disguise

Is more than convincing

Keep it up, keep it up

You'll find something to smile about

They don't notice you

So just play it cool

And don't give yourself away

I'll ask if this seat is taken

If I'm not mistaken

You were expecting me anyway

Your eyes are hiding more than tears

They're giving away your fears

And with this handful of lines

I'll expect you to change

But I'm left wanting

(oohhh)

Behind a painted face she's screaming

"I'm not an optimist!"

Keep it up, keep it up

You'll find something to smile about

They don't notice you

Your disguise

Is more than convincing

Keep it up, keep it up

You'll find something to smile about

They don't notice you

So just play it cool

And don't give yourself...

She demands compensation

For what's been done here

And how I wish I knew what we were dealing with

Matchsticks don't make men

And I've created a monster

There's a storm coming

And I can feel it in my bones

I want to hear your voices echo off these walls

There's a storm coming I can feel it

I can feel it

And I've created a monster
