"Surprise Surprise" lyrics

"Surprise Surprise"

Surprise, surprise, I couldn't sleep last night
Wide awake staring at the moon
Surprise, surprise, I lost my appetite
My morning star rose for me too soon

The time, it flies on by like an F-18
And leaves us screaming in the sun
The sky, it tries to watch over everything
Making no sense of what we've become

And when your world is void of everything
Watch life go by like passing cars
As it twirls, the noise can be deafening
Watch out for the stars
Watch out for the stars

Surprise, surprise, I just couldn't smile today
Was up the whole night counting stars
Surprise, surprise, I feel like I lost my way
Buried beneath these mounting scars

And when your world is void of everything
Watch life go by like passing cars
As it twirls, the noise can be deafening
Watch out for the stars
Watch out for the stars

No, I can't just look it up
Look away
Am I already guilty of just good enough?
I was supposed to be on watch
Sat still and I dozed off
I let the monsters march right in
And the beat keeps happening

And when your world is void of everything
Watch life go by like passing cars
And as it twirls, the noise can be deafening
Watch out for the stars
Watch out for the stars

And when your world is void of everything
Watch life go by like passing cars
And as it twirls, the noise can be deafening
Watch out for the stars
Watch out for the stars
