The Genius Lyrics

Turn out the lights, turn out the lights
Find a place to hide
You close your eyes, you close your eyes
Chasing something inside

You're a genius in your own mind
But the words never come out right
The right words wake your sleep
After the wrong ones made their way through your teeth

If only I could take it back
Tongue in cheek, why do you speak?
Before the brain starts working
Melody's got a perfect tragic end

Mouth and mind, stay in line
Don't ever do this to me again
Or I'll refuse to use you...

Get out the paper, write it down Cover every angle
Cause where's the point you're trying to make
When you talk yourself in circles

You're a mess in your own mind
Stop that from being your one line
The right words wake your sleep
After the wrong ones made their way through your teeth

If only I could take it back
Tongue in cheek, why do you speak?
Before the brain starts working
Melody's got a perfect tragic end

Mouth and mind, stay in line
Don't ever do this to me again
I'll refuse to use you...
