PLACEBO

(album: EVO - 2021)

I don't wanna take this guy
I fell down, didn't know that I could fly
Uh, had to make a sacrifice
Off a addy, I'm satisfied
I could never be what they want me to be
I could never see what you want me to see
One step forward, two steps back
Had to hustle, I was down on my ass

Look up at the sky
I'm a star, so bright
Diamonds dancing in the wind
I glow, I shine
But then I met you
Knew I had to make you mine
You the type you only ever meet
Once in your life
I'm a phoenix
How I die and respawn
You my 'lil bro
Kick rocks, get lost
They will give up anything
Take a bet, lose it all
I'm a reference
Like the painting on the wall

I tried to learn my lessons
I think I forgot to mention
Just can't pay attention
Looking for a new obsession

I don't wanna take this guy
I fell down, didn't know that I could fly
Uh, had to make a sacrifice
Off a addy, I'm satisfied
I could never be what they want me to be
I could never see what you want me to see
One step forward, two steps back
Had to hustle, I was down on my ass

Ice on me, like the snow
I was on the road
Selling out shows
With the fucking bros
I'm on a mission
Sometimes you get caught up
And move in different positions
I know you feel the distance
Lost myself
Cause I wanted it all
Standing on a castle
Made of cards
Man I hope it don't fall
Before you get to running
Better learn how to crawl
If you looking for a meaning
Lotta writing on the walls

I tried to learn my lessons
I think I forgot to mention
Just can't pay attention
Looking for a new obsession

I don't wanna take this guy
I fell down, didn't know that I could fly
Uh, had to make a sacrifice
Off a addy, I'm satisfied
I could never be what they want me to be
I could never see what you want me to see
One step forward, two steps back
Had to hustle, I was down on my ass

One step forward, two steps back
One step forward, two steps back
One step forward, two steps back
One step forward, then two steps back
