Once he loved her
Once he could
See her as a flower
The days would rise
And set in her eyes
A sweetness he'd devour
Slowly it took him over
Seeds from the dark side
Planted when just a boy
Grew wild inside him now

The skin between your heart and mine
Like sun to moon and earth to sky
And brains are washed in glossy lies
'Til beautiful means perfect in our minds

Hated himself
All his life
Couldn't own his blessings
He pushed aside
Every ray of light
That photographed him shining
Slowly he wanted more
Than she could ever give
With her he fantasized
About a movie star

The skin between your heart and mine
Like sun to moon and earth to sky
And brains are washed in glossy lies
'Til beautiful means perfect in our minds

I like the way you move in the sun inside your room
I like the way you move in the sun inside your room
When the sun, it kisses your skin
And makes me crazy while you're in
I can't see you big at all
Suck your life, oh yeah

Slowly he went too far; flame to the fire
His breath curling all the pages of a magazine

The skin between your heart and mine
Like sun to moon and earth to sky
And brains are washed in glossy lies
'Til beautiful means perfect
The skin between your heart and mine
Like sun to moon and earth to sky
And brains are washed in glossy lies
'Til beautiful means perfect in our minds
