Coat tails, are dragging all around
Ride them, straight into the ground
With a bottle in your hand, you can do anything but stand, and deliver too
You won't see this thru

Uptown, has never been so low
Shot down, with no place left to go
I can't get this lit, Will I get fired before I quit, on all of you
Never seem to choose

Wait…..I can't seem to catch a break
Won't you help me play this game
Cause I just dropped the ball again
Now I can't hear what I want to say
Cause these sirens come in spades
Crashing thru the view that lights the room
And drives us all insane

Then you say the last place that I look's the first place you'll stay
You'd sell your broken heart to make sure
I'd pay for all that I've done wrong
I'll let you lead the way
It's easier to pass along the blame

Wait…..I can't seem to catch a break
Won't you help me play this game
Cause I just dropped the ball again
Now I can't hear what I want to say
Cause these sirens come in spades
Crashing thru the view that lights the room
And drives us all insane

You want it, still want it
You can't wait to pawn it
You want it, still want it
Can't wait to throw it all away
