Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Needle in the haystack
Pricked my finger when it first made contact
Oh, sad girls find the drunk boys
Seek out and destroy
Seek out and destroy

You were like a lost light
Trapped inside a cellar, stuck at midnight
Oh, I thought I could save you
Only if I knew
Only if I knew

The girl went bad, scantily clad
In a slip of bad news
Pulling off my shoes
The girl went bad, scantily clad
Now I'm dead in the water

A deer in the headlights
Is what you'll always be
Whenever you see me for the rest of your life
A deer in the headlights

A deer in the headlights
Is what you'll always be
What you'll always be
A deer in the headlights

You were just a wolf wrapped under sheepskin
Oh, I let you bite right in
Should have seen your teeth underneath the grin

Drunken boys and sad girls
Mixed together, could destroy the whole world
Oh, I prayed that was untrue
Only if I knew
Only if I knew

The girl went bad, scantily clad
In a slip of bad news
Pulling off my shoes
The girl went bad, scantily clad
Now I'm dead in the water

A deer in the headlights
Is what you'll always be
Whenever you see me for the rest of your life
A deer in the headlights

A deer in the headlights
Is what you'll always be
What you'll always be
A deer in the headlights

You steal away what was safe about me
But I'd rather be caught in the lights
Than be buried by the night

Oh, oh, oh-oh (repeat)

A deer in the headlights
Is what you'll always be
What you'll always be
A deer in the headlights

Oh, oh, oh-oh (repeat)

A deer in the headlights
A deer in the headlights
