Panic! At The Disco - Round Here lyrics

rate me

Step out the front door like a ghost

Into the fog where no one notices

The contrast of white on white

And in between the moon and you

The angels get a better view

Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right

I walk in the air between the rain

Through myself and back again

Where? I don't know

Maria says she's dying

Through the door I hear her crying

Why? I don't know

Round here we always stand up straight

Round here something radiates

Well Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand

She said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis

She walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land

It's like she's walking on a wire in the circus

She parks her car outside of my house

Takes her clothes off

Says she's close to understanding Jesus

And she knows she's more than just a little misunderstood

She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous

Round here we're carving out our names

Round here we all look the same

Round here we talk just like lions

But we sacrifice like lambs

Round here she's slipping through my hands

Ohhh....

Sleeping children better run like the wind

out of the lightning dream

Mama's little baby better get herself in

out of the lightning

She says "it's only in my head"

She says "Shhh I know it's only in my head"

She said "did you think that you were dreaming?"

I said "no"

"Did you think that you were dreaming"

I said "no"

"Did you think that you were dreaming"

I said "sometimes I don't know"

There's a girl on the car out in the parking lot

And she says "come on, ya know come on just take a shot

Can't you see me

Can't you see me

Can't you see my walls are tumbling down?

Can't you see my walls are crumbling down?

Can't you see my sun stop spinning around

Can't you see the sky turn black and brown

Can't you see the moon is flashing round

Can't you see me

Can't you see me

Can't you see me

No

There's a girl on the car out in the parking lot

"Can't you see my walls are crumbling down?"

Then she looks up at the building

Says she's thinking of jumping

She says she's tired of life

She must be tired of something

Round here she's always on my mind

Round here hey man got lots of time

Round here we're never sent to bed early

and nobody makes us wait

Round here we stay up very, very, very, very late

I can't see nothing.. nothing round here

So will you catch if I'm falling

Will you catch me if I'm falling

Will you catch me cause I'm falling down on you

I said I'm under the gun round here

Man I said I'm under the gun round here

And I can't see nothing

Nothing round here
