Cotton Mouth

Kids of 88

I'm pretending all the time
I know I'm not so easy on the eyes
But my words my name my light
Keeps them up all night
 
You put us up there in lights
I know the heat it burns my skin so white
But my shins my knees my lies
Keep them up all night.
 
So wake me up when my time is done
Because you know that I'm not the one
And give me all that you've got to waste on me
All your love, all your love
 
I've been cheating all the time
My cotton mouth looks like a pantomime
I'm working overtime
Got me up all night
 
I'm pretending all the time
I know I'm not so easy on the eyes
But my words my name my light
Keeps them up all night
 
So wake me up when my time is done
Because you know that I'm not the one
 
So wake me up when my time is done
Because you know that I'm not the one
