The Killers Tribute EP

Mr Brightside

Coming out of my cage and I've been doing just fine gotta, gotta be down, because I want it all
It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this it was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab while he's having a smoke and she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed and my stomach is sick and it's all in my head, but she's touching his
Chest now, he takes off her dress now, let me go
And I just can't look, it's killing me they're taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes because I'm Mr. Brightside

Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis

Open up my eager eyes because I'm Mr. Brightside

Somebody Told Me

Breaking my back just to know your name seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game
I'm breaking my back just to know your name but heaven ain't close in a place like this
Anything goes but don't blink, you might miss because heaven ain't close in a place like this
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumor ruin my moonlight
Well, somebody told me you had a boyfriend who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year it's not confidential, I've got potential rushing around

Ready let's roll onto something new taking its toll then I'm leaving without you
Because heaven ain't close in a place like this I said, heaven ain't close in a place like this
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight never thought I'd let a rumor ruin my moonlight
Well, somebody told me you had a boyfriend who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year it's not confidential, I've got potential rushing around
Well, somebody told me you had a boyfriend

Pace yourself for me I said maybe please
But I just don't know now maybe when all I want to do is try
Pace yourself for me I said maybe please
But I just don't know now maybe when all I want to do is try

All These Things That I've Done

When there's nowhere else to run is there room for one more son? 
One more son if you can hold on if you can hold on, hold on

I wanna stand up, I wanna let go you know, you know; no, you don't, you don't
I wanna shine on in the hearts of man I want a meaning from the back of my broken hand
Another head aches, another heart breaks I'm so much older than I can take
And my affection, well, it comes and goes I need direction to perfection
Help me out you know you gotta help me out
Don't you put me on the back burner you know you gotta help me out

And when there's nowhere else to run is there room for one more son?
These changes ain't changing me the cold-hearted boy I used to be
Help me out you know you gotta help me out
Don't you put me on the back burner you know you gotta help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down you're gonna bring yourself down
You're gonna bring yourself down

I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
Time, truth, and hearts
Help me out you know you gotta help me out
Don't you put me on the back burner you know you gotta help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down you're gonna bring yourself down
You're gonna bring yourself down
Over and in, last call for sin while everyone's lost, the battle is won
With all these things that I've done all these things that I've done
Time, truth, and hearts if you can hold on if you can hold on

When You Were Young

You sit there in your heartache waiting on some beautiful boy to to save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness watch it now here he comes
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus but he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined when you were young

Can we climb this mountain I don't know
Higher now than ever before I know we can make it if we take it slow
Let's take it easy easy now watch it go
We're burning down the highway skyline on the back of a hurricane
That started turning when you were young
And sometimes you close your eyes
And see the place where you used to live when you were young

They say the devil's water it ain't so sweet
You don't have to drink right now but you can dip your feet every once in a little while
You sit there in your heartache waiting on some beautiful boy to to save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness watch it now here he comes
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus but he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined when you were young
I said he doesn't look a thing like Jesus he doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But more than you'll ever know

Human

I did my best to notice when the call came down the line
Up to the platform of surrender I was brought, but I was kind
And sometimes I get nervous when I see an open door
Close your eyes, clear your heart cut the cord
Are we human or are we dancer my sign is vital my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer are we human or are we dancer?

Pay my respects to grace and virtue send my condolences to good
Give my regards to soul and romance they always did the best they could
And so long to devotion you taught me everything I know
Wave goodbye, wish me well you've got to let me go
Are we human or are we dancer my sign is vital my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer are we human or are we dancer?

Will your system be alright when you dream of home tonight?
There is no message we're receiving let me know, is your heart still beating?
Are we human or are we dancer my sign is vital my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer are we human or are we dancer?

Smile Like You Mean It

Save some face, you know you've only got one change your ways while you're young
One day you'll be a man he'll help you understand
Smile like you mean it smile like you mean it
Looking back at sunsets on the East Side we lost track of the time
Dreams aren't what they used to be some things slide by so carelessly
Smile like you mean it smile like you mean it

And someone is calling my name from the back of the restaurant
And someone is playing a game in the house that I grew up in
And someone will drive her around down the same streets that I did
On the same streets that I did
Smile like you mean it smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it smile like you mean it
