sugar in a bowl

Of Monsters And Men

I found a fire in your shadow
I know you are born to be wild
In your years you've been alone too
Hidin' from the monsters in your head

Sugar in a bowl
On your coffee table
Animals that sleep on your dining room floor
In your house
You are just waiting for a light to pass by
One second at a time

Your freckles are gone and now your face is
Dry as the walls surrounding you
Coffee keeps you up for hours
TV tucks you in at night

A picture on the wall
Of a friend you used to know
The smell of the coffee sitting on the stove
In your house
You are just waiting for a light to pass by
One second at a time

Sugar in a bowl on your coffee table
Animals that sleep on your dining room floor
In your house
You are still waiting for a light to pass by
One second at a time
