I was only going out to get some air
I was only going out to get back in
By the time I saw the city lights fade out
In the back seat of your car, that's when I found
Now I wish it didn't bother me no more
All the things that made me dark for such a time
And I sell my heart to make it all turn right
I could run from it, but it always catches up
And I'm always sad there's something in the way
And I moved to like myself for what I do
Would you listen if I told you I was wrong?
Would you take it back, would you take it back?
Yeah, I used to make these songs easily
But things have turned so different from now
Cause I'm always sad and I always turn you down
Don't take me down, don't take me down
Have I told you about the titans in my dreams?
'Bout the large ships that are floating next to me?
And I dreamt my bed was lying in the port
And the white water propulsion next to me
Yeah, I used to make these songs so easily
But things have turned so different from now
Cause I'm always sad and I always turn you down
Don't take me down, don't take me down
I got a fever when I tried to get along
And I really don't think that I'm OK
Cause I'm always sad and I always miss the boat
Don't take it back, don't take me down
(Whistles)
De-de-da-de-da-de-da-de-da
Ne-ne-na-ne-na-ne-na-ne-na
