Man, tell what's the time 'Cause I'm not feeling fine I can't recall who we're supposed to be She closed her eyes and cried A seven minute drive Was dealt a shitty hand until the day she died And as I slip away There's little left to say And nothing here keeps the thoughts away Now I am on the ground I'm gasping for the air to free me From the weight I'm bound Fear and it surrounds me Oh, I try my best to tell myself I know what I'll be Whoa-oh oh Whoa-oh oh I can't believe I did that Was it really me or am I just a fading man? Whoa-oh oh A fading man Lying on the bathroom floor Will someone please just tell me what we're fighting for? Whoa-oh oh Whoa-oh oh Screaming in the back seat Oh, we're nodding heads, you're searching for the Backbeat Whoa-oh oh The backbeat Never doing what we're told I can't wait for growing old Listen up, it takes some time Pretending to stabilize My days get sent away In a little gray pen charged up today And I can't keep these thoughts away So hide me in the backroom Swimming with the sine waves Stuck up on the high shelf Oh, she has to take a break to discover herself Whoa-oh oh Discover yourself You all stare right through me Oh, you won the war but hate your own hypocrisy Whoa-oh oh Your hypocrisy Never doing what we're told I can't wait for growing old Listen up, it takes some time Pretending to stabilize Never doing what we're told I can't wait for growing old Listen up, it takes some time Pretending to stabilize My days get sent away In a little gray pen charged up today And I can't keep these thoughts away So hide me in the backroom Swimming with the sine waves My days get sent away In a little gray pen charged up today And I can't keep these thoughts away So hide me in the backroom Swimming with the sine waves Everything is lended Living life pretending Absent minds are vacant We can try to fake it I can't take back from what I bought I can't go back, it's you I've lost I can't slow down, I can't see clear I can't look back, is it fate or fear? I can't take back from what I bought I can't go back, it's you I've lost I can't slow down, I can't see clear I can't look back, is it fate or fear? I can't take back from what I bought I can't go back, it's you I've lost I can't slow down, I can't see clear I can't look back, is it fate or fear? I can't take back from what I bought I can't go back, it's you I've lost I can't slow down, I can't see clear I can't look back, is it fate or fear? My days get sent away In a little gray pen charged up today And I can't keep these thoughts away So hide me in the backroom Swimming with the sine waves My days get sent away In a little gray pen charged up today And I can't keep these thoughts away So hide me in the backroom Swimming with the sine waves (My days get sent away) Everything is lended (In a little gray pen charged up today) Living life pretending (And I can't keep these thoughts away) Absent minds are vacant (So hide me in the backroom) We can try to fake it (Swimming with the sine waves) My days get sent away (Everything is lended) In a little gray pen charged up today (Living life pretending) And I can't keep these thoughts away (Absent minds are vacant) So hide me in the backroom (We can try to fake it) Swimming with the sine waves
