lyrics

Night of the Prom

Standing watch the lakeside burning at the break of day
Hollow inside, flag in hand, a design so grand and so holistic
Tonight is the night and you’re running scared

Standing watch the city crumble chills you as you fall
All the girls in their new dresses and they don’t see you at all
Cause tonight is the night and you are on the outside

Don’t be shy
The child in you about to realize

So much for the future now the truth has struck your heart
All the boys are celebrating and it’s tearing you apart
Cause tonight is the night and you are on the outside

There’s something wrong
The boys are on alert

Don’t be shy
The child in you about to realize
Shadows will pass you by
Cause today you are starting the rest of your life

Standing watch the lakeside burning at the break of day
Life is just a house of cards, a kiss so hot it ruins your lipstick

There’s something wrong
The boys are on alert
