In her eyes
I'm drawn to the reflection of my demise
My grimace on a screen one mile high
My whole world on a plate for you to try
Relationships are compromise

I kiss the hand of my destroyer
With love, I watch her watch me cry
How marvelous my house on fire

Come inside
And help yourself to anything that's mine
Kiss me till the tears fill up my eyes
Push me down the stairs and watch me climb
Just to see you smile

I kiss the hand of my destroyer
With love, I watch her watch me cry
How marvelous my house on fire

I'll pretend I don't mind
I'll play the dying swan tonight
My feathers will fill up the sky
And fall down by your side

You are the sunshine of my life
