embrace the noise and the joy may i have this dance
we points of light and rush of blood filling up these veins of chance
you were all that I could see a study in femininity
your kiss it made the waves part and isn't life the truest art

and you're wasted now and the whole thing was a lie
but you're ready and red-eye
and you're wasted now and the whole thing was a lie
but you're ready and red-eye

i awoke from comic books suburbs of my slumber
complacent curbside summers footnotes of my wonder
and everything's so vulnerable especially when it's fashionable
if i showed you all my heart honey isn't life the truest art

your faith was a balloon you let go in skies of June
youth it fades just like a flower way to soon

and you're wasted now and the whole thing was a lie
but you're ready and red-eye
and you're wasted now and the whole thing was a lie
but you're ready and red-eye
