  • Picture-perfect love
    Suddenly upside-down
    Picture-perfect love
    Suddenly upside-down
    Wipe the tears from your face and get high

    Having a battle under the moonlight
    Fading away
    Having a battle under the moonlight
    Fading away
    You wanna come
    Why can't you kill me yourself?

    Just having a battle under the moonlight
    Fading away

    Picture-perfect love
    Suddenly upside-down

    Having a battle under the moonlight
    Fading away
    Having a battle under the moonlight
    Fading away
    You wanna come
    Why can't you kill me yourself?

    Just having a battle under the moonlight
    Fading away

    The dream turned worse than a nightmare
    Hear that sound?
    Our demon's cursing and screaming'
    Even when the sun is out
    Pictures on the wall turned over
    Like a home turned into a funhouse
    I'm stumbling down the corridor
    Like someone spiked my Corona
    Call the coroner
    Our love is dead and it's
    Lying in the corner
    Arms and legs stretched out on the floor like a dolly
    Salvador, it's surreal nothing feels real no more
    All I can do is drink and smoke 'til I can't feel a fuckin' thing no more, your
    Face is starting to change shapes
    Into someone I never seen before
    I been going insane
    Since you been gone
    Picture-perfect never looked so wrong
    And in the end if I can't make you mine
    I'ma drink myself into a new frame of mind

    Having a battle under the moonlight
    Fading away
    Having a battle under the moonlight
    Fading away
    You wanna come
    Why can't you kill me yourself?

    Just having a battle under the moonlight
    Fading away
    Wipe the tears from your face and get high Writer/s: Griffin Larry Darnell, Holly Hafermann, Jovohn Jordan Griffin, Stuart Lowery
