Idol Lyrics

Always looked up to you
For a sun trying to catch a cue
Followed your every move
Pretending to be just like you

I never seen you look surprised
I wish I could see your dark side
I held you up to the light
To see if you had a summer night

Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer but I'm unsure
Every day's a blessing, every day's a hangover
You tell me, tell me, tell me the answer but I'm unsure
Every day's a blessing, every day's a hangover

Did all of your own stunts
Kept your picture, saved it for months
Kindred spirits I guess, you're never gonna admit it
I have, I have, I have a shadow you keep in the eye
I have, I have, I have, a feeling it's our last goodbye

I held you up to the light
Had a summer night

Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer but I'm unsure
Every day's a blessing, every day's a hangover
You tell me, tell me, tell me the answer but I'm unsure
Every day's a blessing, every day's a hangover
So they said it was a joke and there's no one else to believe in
So they said it was a joke and there's no one else to believe in
So they said it was a joke and there's no one else to believe in
So they said it was a joke and there's no one else to believe in

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
