Faithless - The Airborne Toxic Event

I wake up early my head and rise

The fever dream of what we did last night

I flex my fingers and feel my age

Fifteen minutes till we take the stage

And I call you when I wake up drunk

My arms are cold and my head is sunk

They say the lights go up at ten PM

Just make sure you’re okay by then

And the signs, oh, the signs

That carry me far from home

But you can’t give away

Something you never owned

You owned, you owned

Oh, desire burns like fire

Just give me one single second degree

I’ll turn off the lights before I leave

Our fate is faithless

Floating weightless

Looking for lost souls like us

We never had a choice but to give up

And the secrets, they keep

Buried inside our lungs

It’s no secret, believe

We were just far too young

Too young, too young

I say you can’t give something to take it back

Just pull his knife out from my neck

Don’t tell me that you did your best

God only knows I was a lucky guess

And now all of my friends are dropping out

It’s way too quiet when your head’s so loud

Not falling into empty space

Just sit and feel my heartbeat race

Oh, desire burns like fire

Just give me one single second degree

I’ll turn off the lights before I leave

Our fate is faithless

Floating weightless

Looking for lost souls like us

We never had a choice but to give up

Give up

And the secret we keep

Buried inside our lungs

It’s no secret, believe

We were just far too dumb

Too dumb, too dumb

Oh, desire burns like fire

Just give me one single second degree

I’ll turn off the lights before I leave

Our fate is faithless

Floating weightless

Looking for lost souls like us

We never had a choice but to give up
