I didn't mean to get so high.
I just didn't wanna feel so low.
I just didn't want to know
That it's all going to shit,
And we're right in the middle of it.
Every time we take a step ahead
I find we take a step behind
Right back to the start.
How are we supposed to get ahead
When passion's out of fashion
Who still speaks from the heart?
Numb, numb, numb to the news
And now we're numb to the blues
Made dumb so we can be used.
We can't tell the truth from the lies
When we're so confused
That we're out of our minds.
I didn't mean to get so high.
I just didn't wanna feel so low.
I just didn't want to know
That it's all going to shit,
And we're right in the middle of it.
We can't even agree to be free
Too broke, too tired, too busy to resist.
What world is this?
What world is this?
What world is this?
I didn't mean to get so high.
I just didn't wanna feel so low.
I just didn't want to know
That it's all going to shit,
And we're right in the middle of it.
