There's an echo pulling out the meaningRescuing a nightmare from a dreamThe voices in my head are always screamingThat none of this means anything to meAnd it's a long way back from seventeenThe whispers turn into a screamAnd I'm not coming homeSave your breath, I'm nearlyBored to death and fading fastLife is too short to last longBack on earth I'm brokenLost and cold and fading fastLife is too short to last longThere's a stranger staring at the ceilingRescuing a tiger from a treeThe pictures in her head are always dreamingEach of them means everything to meAnd it's a long way back from seventeenThe whispers turn into a screamAnd I'm not coming homeSave your breath, I'm nearlyBored to death and fading fastLife is too short to last longBack on earth I'm brokenLost and cold and fading fastLife is too short to last longI think I met her at the minute that the rhythm was set downI said I'm sorry I'm a bit of a let downBut all my friends are daring me to come overSo I come over and over and overSo let me buy you a drinkAnd we'll pretend that you thinkThat I'm the man of your dreamsCome to life in a dive barAnd we'll go over and over and overAnd we'll go over and over and overAnd we'll go over and over and overAnd we'll go over and over and overSave your breath, I'm nearlyBored to death and fading fastLife is too short to last longBack on earth I'm brokenLost and cold and fading fastLife is too short to last longOh oh, oh ohOh oh, oh oh...
