Lotus Eater lyrics

[Verse 1]

I can never be like you

I don't ever talk like that

You smile with a sparkler drink

And stumble in your lipstick mess

Hollywood philosophies

Yeah, it's a tragedy

But you keep hanging on

With a vacant look

Just waiting around for someone to take you home

[Pre-Chorus 1]

And I know you know I'm not the one

I'm sorry I was late, I didn't wanna come

[Chorus 1]

Aaaaaahhhhhh!

Oh no, man, it's just not that much fun

Oooh

[Verse 2]

Well my eyes are wandering

Can we just eat the news

And dance around the room

In a scattered point of views

Take my hand and breathe

Yeah just count to three

I wish that I could blink and turn all your words

Into ice cubes so I could fill my drink

[Pre-Chorus 2]

And I know you know I'm not the one

I'm sorry I was late, next time I just won't come

[Chorus 2]

Woo!

Aaaaaahhhhhh!

Oh man, yea, I think I gotta run!

Oooh

(Laughter)

[Verse 3]

Hey, what's that called when you're sitting on your couch

And having fun just being by yourself

Wondering why we can't commit to love

The things that we got we always want more of

[Pre-Chorus 3]

I know you'd rather have me fake it but I'm not gonna make it

[Chorus 2]

Woo!

Aaaaaahhhhhh!

Yeah yeah yeah, man I gotta run!

Oooh
