Bored to Death

There's an echo pulling out the meaning

Rescuing a nightmare from a dream

The voices in my head are always screaming

That none of this means anything to me

And it's a long way back from seventeen

The whispers turn into a scream

And I, I'm not coming home

Save your breath, I'm nearly

Bored to death and fading fast

Life is too short to last long

Back on Earth, I'm broken

Lost and cold and fading fast

Life is too short to last long

There's a stranger staring at the ceiling

Rescuing a tiger from a tree

The pictures in her head are always dreaming

Each of them means everything to me

And it's a long way back from seventeen

The whispers turn into a scream

And I, I'm not coming home

Save your breath, I'm nearly

Bored to death and fading fast

Life is too short to last long

Back on Earth, I'm broken

Lost and cold and fading fast

Life is too short to last long

Oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

(Oh oh, oh oh)

I think I met her at the minute that the rhythm was set down

(Oh oh, oh oh)

I said I'm sorry I'm a bit of a letdown

(Oh oh, oh oh)

But all my friends are daring me to come over

(Oh oh, oh oh)

So I come over and over and over

(Oh oh, oh oh)

So let me buy you a drink and we'll pretend that you think

(Oh oh, oh oh)

That I'm the man of your dreams come to life in a dive bar

(Oh oh, oh oh)

And we'll go over and over and over

(Oh oh, oh oh)

And we'll go over and over and over

(Oh oh, oh oh)

And we'll go over and over and over

(Oh oh, oh oh)

And we'll go over and over and over

Save your breath, I'm nearly

Bored to death and fading fast

Life is too short to last long

Back on Earth, I'm broken

Lost and cold and fading fast

Life is too short to last long

Oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

(Life is too short to last long)

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh
