i lost my game today when i told my drummer to fuck himself
i called him back straight away ‘cause without him i don't got no one else
i gave away the play today when i let this girl walk over me
i called her up straight away, said “this future's really hard to see.
if i could walk like you and talk like you, maybe it'd feel that good.
i bet it would.
you know i work so hard to act the part but the feelings don't feel like they should.”
got no game
i threw my phone at the wall today when i realised it took over me
you know we all look just the same with our earbuds, standing on the train
i wish i had some time today to tell her how i really feel but words don't like to write themselves on pages full of sex appeal
if i could walk like you and talk like you, maybe it'd feel that good
i bet it would
you know i work so hard to act the part but the feelings don't feel like they should
i'm so sick and tired of being this wired that i can't even stand the sight
if i could take my brain, pronounce it sane, maybe you'd come see me play tonight
