[Verse 1]
You're cynical and beautiful
You always make a scene
You're monochrome, delirious
You're nothing that you seem
I'm drowning in your vanity
Your laugh is a disease
You're dirty and you're sweet
You know, you're everything to me
[Chorus]
Everything you are
Falls from the sky like a star
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
[Verse 2]
I want to kick at the machine
That made you piss away your dreams
And tear down your defenses
'Til there's nothing there but me
You're angry when you're beautiful
Your love is such a tease
I'm drowning in your dizzy noise
I want to feel you scream
[Chorus]
Everything you are
Falls from the sky like a star
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
[Instrumental break]
[Chorus]
Everything you are
Falls from the sky like a star
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
[Outro]
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
You're cynical and beautiful
You always make a scene
You're monochrome, delirious
You're nothing that you seem
I'm drowning in your vanity
Your laugh is a disease
You're dirty and you're sweet
You know, you're everything to me
[Chorus]
Everything you are
Falls from the sky like a star
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
[Verse 2]
I want to kick at the machine
That made you piss away your dreams
And tear down your defenses
'Til there's nothing there but me
You're angry when you're beautiful
Your love is such a tease
I'm drowning in your dizzy noise
I want to feel you scream
[Chorus]
Everything you are
Falls from the sky like a star
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
[Instrumental break]
[Chorus]
Everything you are
Falls from the sky like a star
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
[Outro]
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
Everything you are
Whatever ever you are
