lyrics

4:30 am, i can't sleep again
listening to iggy’s "idiot" on the stereo
i don't mind
i don't mind

maybe i'm insincere
maybe i'm wrong footed in the gloom
this shop-worn angel on the wrong side of the room
& the voices alluding to human frailty
echo through the wall
maybe i don't need it anyway
after all this time
i don't mind
i don't mind

give me justification
validate my one in ten
as we danse around & around & around & around this
again & again & again...
& someone told me once:
"we could be heroes"
[i remember]
just for one day
wash it all away
maybe next time i'll be sure
it's o.k.
i don't mind
this is a prayer
don't ever let me stop...
