Lyrics:

Once again, you were gone from here
Poured it in, then you disappeared
Chipped your teeth in a predictable brawl
They don't matter to you anymore

One night to lose your mind
And then wake up away
From all you know, but it’s fine
‘cause tomorrow’s another day

Sunshine burning through the sheets
Screaming match ringing in the streets
Blood spinning like a fairground ride
In the end, you'll be out there again

One night to lose your mind
And then wake up away
From all you know, but it’s fine
‘cause tomorrow’s another day

One night to lose your mind
And then wake up away
From all you know, but it’s fine
‘cause tomorrow’s another day

Lyrics:

I do not worry about the drama
It seems a little overblown to me
It's not like when national trauma
Set up in number nine on Downing Street

I know it seems a little cold 
Cold

I do not have any strong feelings
About the latest on identity
This kind of fuss is unappealing
Since the specifics are unclear to me

I know it seems a little cold 

Maybe it's got to do with who we are
Maybe by signing out I've gone too far
But I will take a chance, though it might seem
A little cold
Cold

I've gone for cover in big swathes of slate 
Dressed in my category, a reprobate
The way you would expect, though it might seem
A little cold
Cold

Lyrics:

They and I are not alike
They've got it easier, their names are like halos
They are gentry, I'm low life
And now I wonder how they make all that shale flow

I'm jealous

Who will know when I die
You surely won't see my name in the papers
Why complain when I get by
At least down here I cannot fall out of favour

There's something comfortable
About not trying to be a giant
It isn't worth the trouble
Not worth the trouble, no

I just want my kids to love me
But I'm fine with mere respect
Don't mind staying below the heavens 
As long as I'm above contempt 

There's something comfortable
About not trying to be a giant
It isn't worth the trouble
Not worth the trouble, no

When they place us side by side
Try as I might, it takes me back to dreaming

Oh, yeah

There's something comfortable
About not trying to be a giant
It isn't worth the trouble
Not worth the trouble, no

Lyrics:

I'll drive my nostrils bloody
'Cause I wanna be somebody
I wanna be somebody to love

I strive for picture-perfect
But is it ever worth it
When the best is never good enough?

When you're touching the sky and you're pushed to go higher
Do you feel the pressure pulling you under?

It's in my demographic
To slash through heavy traffic
And haul the reindeer home come evening

Yeah, I was born to win
Bullets bouncing off my skin 
But there's a crown for only one king

When you're touching the sky and you're pushed to go higher
Do you feel the pressure pulling you under?

One step away, and then I'm pretty liminal
Which will it be, mogul or petty criminal?
Will I see my name writ large in an obituary?
I'll be too far gone to savour all that empathy

Rise with the sun at five
Sixteen hours on the grind
Nobody said it would be easy

When you're touching the sky and you're pushed to go higher
Do you feel the pressure pulling you under?
When you're flying so high that your wings are on fire
Do you feel the pressure pulling you under?

Lyrics:

I know, I can tell, you haven't had it very easy
'cause the irony police is close on your heels
Disquotation makes you flinch, so
This stanza isn't serious, though you don't know how good it would feel

That's where we left it
That's where we left each other
That's where we left it
That's where we left each other

That thing you just said, it sounded so familiar
You're done with the close-ups, they're just not your style
Remember when we zoomed in, faces made of ceresin, and weaknesses held under seal
'cause the fallout would get awkward, so we never let it get real

That's where we left it
That's where we left each other
That's where we left it
That's where we left each other

Kiss me goodnight
And then be gone
I wanna be screaming and flaring like feral fireworks
So, I'm gonna do it all over

That's where we left it
That's where we left each other
That's where we left it
That's where we left each other
