lyrics

While fog fuzzes fluorescence
The moon drowns in a down gown
Reluctant to rest or even request a trip to Celeste's
For one of her best back rubs
Not wantin' no one to see you so 'lone
Looking so lavender blue
That you shut your blinds in lieu of your eyelids
Lurking in all your eight corners and circling the floor
Now making it to boring may take al night
Finally, first light

Well you fight like a fish out of water
Flailing, not failing at anything
Fronting and gushing so no one will call you selfish
But just giving yourself away
Confined by your conclusions and looking for the easy way out
But you're your own best example, babe
You know what I'm talking about
And now the big city don't burn as bright
Finally, first light

Well your checkmate just bounced
You're on your last ounce
The man down at redemption don't wanna honor your discounts
When you judge yourself but the guilt don't atone
You feel like a swinger on a seesaw alone
You're obsessed with your reflection 'cause you don't like what you see
But the mirror moves at the speed on black, babe
Looking back constantly
You really shouldn't mind, the more you get shined
The brighter off you'll be
Things'll come into focus once I'm out of sight
Finally, first light
