Down and Out

I don't know what's on stereo anymore
And I don't care about these symphonies
That run across my mind
They're simple and they're childish

Now I want to focus on the little things
Forget the parties and the diamond rings
Forget about all of the times that we made love in London
Watching as the world finally explodes

Down and out, for the count
Raise me up to be someone you're not

On my own here we go
Head's not right but I'm working it out

Suddenly, I see the irony in living fast
I see my body isn't built to last
I see my mind distorting, crooked from embarrassment

Now, I'm trying desperately to make you real
Building a girlfriend that you'd want to steal
So narcissistic that I fell in love with my creation
Burn me at the stake for heresy

Down and out, for the count
Raise me up to be someone you're not

On my own here we go
Head's not right but I'm working it out

Reach out slowly, kiss me dear
Hold me closer so I don't have no fear

I'm like you, the taste of sound
Play me louder so I can drown it all out

Meet me in my pod again
Let's chill and have a smoke
Lovers til the very end
The morning sun has woke
Riding top of solar flares
The ship it moves, it groans
Wake us up in 20 years
When we've finally found our home

Down and out, for the count
Raise me up to be someone you're not

On my own here we go
Head's not right but I'm working it out

Reach out slowly, kiss me dear
Hold me closer so I don't have no fear

I'm like you, the taste of sound
Play me louder so I can drown it all out
