Bedtime Stories Lyrics - Both [b&n Exclusive] - The Both

Bedtime stories just got the hook 

Allegories that stay in the book 

So much was simply over 

In the little bit of time it took 

So come on and trace me that arc 

So we won't have to wait in the dark 

So we won't have to wail in the 

place you lay waste to your spark 

All those secrets buried alive 

Just a prefix, bees in a hive 

And the one thought that you're leaving 

Is baby, only walls survive 

So come on and trace me that arc 

So we won't have to wait in the dark 

So we won't have to wait in the 

place you lay waste to your spark 

And now we know when someone owes, 

someone pays 

For lessons frozen in your gaze 

Impressing only that no one ever stays 

And now there's poetry and 

prose in your name 

It overflows the frame 

Trying to impose a theory on the game 

So come on and trace me that arc 

So we won't have to wait in the dark 

So we won't have to wait for the song 

or the revenant lark 

And now we know when someone owes, 

someone pays 

For lessons frozen in your gaze 

Impressing only that no one ever stays 

And now there's poetry and 

prose in your name 

It overflows the frame 

Trying to impose a theory on the game 

Bedtime stories, before the end 

Tiresome worries, time's not your friend 

And no thought is recovered 

From a novel little writer's crook 

So come on and trace me that arc 

So we won't have to wait in the dark 

So we won't have to wait in the dark
