  • I'm always thinking about useless things
    I'm always checking out
    I'm always bothering myself to bits
    I'm always checking out

    Forget it, nothing I change changes anything
    I won't let in
    I won't let it ruin my head

    I only take up a little of the collapsing space
    I better cut this off
    Don't wanna fuck it up
    I only take up a little of the collapsing space
    I better cut this off
    Don't wanna fuck up the place

    I better walk it back, walk it back
    Oh, I better walk it back, walk it back
    Walk it back, walk it back

    I try to save it for a rainy day
    It's raining all the time
    Until everything is less insane
    I'm mixing weed with wine

    Forget it, nothing I change changes anything
    I won't let in
    I won't let it ruin my head

    I only take up a little of the collapsing space
    I better cut this off
    Don't wanna fuck it up
    I only take up a little of the collapsing space
    I better cut this off
    Don't wanna fuck it up

    I only take up a little of the collapsing space
    I better cut this off
    Don't wanna fuck up the place

    I better walk it back, walk it back
    Oh, I better walk it back, walk it back
    Walk it back, walk it back

    Oh, I better walk it back, walk it back
    Walk it back, walk it back

    I can't stay in
    And I can't come back
    I just keep awake
    And I won't react
    I walk through Lawrence town
    Along the tracks
    My own body in my arms
    But I won't colapse
    So don't go dark on me

    It's all alright
    If I'm gonna get back to you some day
    I'll need your light Writer/s: Aaron Brooking Dessner, Bryce David Dessner, Matthew D. Berninger, Ron Suskind
