I'm not the brightest hope, i'm not the shining light
Of my generation
There's nothing in my heart
And i've been drunk in every room and on every floor
Of the world's tallest building
There's nothing in my heart
And are you in love with me?
You know what it means to me, you know what it means to me
And are you in love with me?
You know what it means to me, you know what it means to me
Inside a taxi cab, inside a carnival,
Inside a beautiful parade
In new york in the rain
Upside down and tangled up in a parachute
Trying to set myself free
As the ground is rushing to meet me
And are you in love with me?
You know what it means to me, you know what it means to me
And are you in love with me?
You know what it means to me, you know what it means to me
And i'm sick and tired of talking shite and the things that people i love put up with from me
Put up with from me
Iim going to get drunk in the afternoon, take a razor blade across my eyes and see
If it makes any difference to me
And are you in love with me?
You know what it means to me, you know what it means to me
And are you in love with me?
You know what it means to me, you know what it means to me
And are you in love with me?
You know what it means to me, you know what it means to me
And are you in love with me?
You know what it means to me, you know what it means to me
I'm not the brightest hope, i'm not the shining light
Of my generation
