everybody wants to take you home   you sat on your bed and cried   i wrap myself round you   you and your stupid pride.   ditch the dark angel   climb up on this pedestal.   everybody wants to take you home   we stepped across the line   now pleasure's a crown of thorns   and pain is a valentine.   sometimes we have to learn   when to let the bridges burn.   why do you want to be   where no-one can find you   nobody knows you   set all your ghosts free   the house is so haunted   is this what you wanted ?.   everybody wants to take you home   you try to live up to that   you feel like you're falling short   like a washed up acrobat.   mirror mirror on the wall   raise your arm against it all.
