Lyrics We Were Promised Jetpacks

We Were Promised Jetpacks

Medicine

I have torn through the pages of the years I have

wasted

And I've stolen all my stories, that I've copied and

pasted

Is this about me now? Still about me now

I fought in an army that only fights boredom

And I've caught all my allies who were only there in

peacetime

Is this about me now? Still about me now

I've ignored all the warnings and the constant

reminders

And I've read the instructions, well I'll never guess

Is this about me now? Still about me now

Bring me back to life

I've stumbled and staggered too many times

Bring me back to life

Too stupid and stubborn to put up a fight.

I have torn through the pages of the years I have

wasted

Then I've stolen all my stories and I've run out of

patience

Is about me now? Still about me now

Give me my medicine my spoon and my bottle

And you can't blame a chancer so beat me to an anvil

And let me sleep it off, let me sleep it off

Bring me back to life

I've stumbled and staggered too many times

Bring me back to life

Too stupid and stubborn to put up a fight

Can't resist, I'm a little out of practice

I'm carved in cement, to hold off the darkness

The thoughts to think illuminate my brain

Bring me back to life

I've stumbled and staggered too many times

Bring me back to life

I've stumbled and staggered too many times

Waitin' for the fight, I'll gamble with my spine

I'm ready for the fight, to toughen up my spine.
