I'll only wear you out

Like a fire you carry around in your mouth

You can hear the cannons calling my name

Like ghosts before you were warm

And you insist on comin' in

Count your sins

Yeah, we'll have a nice ride on the neon tide

Lookin' up, oh

But those feelings are fooling your heart

Status quo from the very start

But you're not one of us

Yeah, those feelings are fooling your mind

Save those, those dreams for another time

'Cause you're one of us

Holding the reins now

Use that fire you've carried around

Go back down

Oh, don't you want it?

Don't you want it?

Don't you want it?

With your friends on the floor

And they're counting the score

Don't you want it even more?

Yeah, we'll have a nice ride on the neon tide

Lookin' up, oh

But those feelings are fooling your heart

Status quo from the very start

But you're not one of us

Yeah, those feelings are fooling your mind

Save those, those dreams for another time

'Cause you're one of us

And don't you want it?

Don't you want it?

With your friends on the floor

And they're counting the score

Don't you want it even more?

Oh, don't you want it?

Don't you want it?

Don't you want it even more?
