Lyrics

Outshined

Well, I got up feeling so down I got off being sold out I've kept the movie rolling But the story's getting old now Oh yeah Well I just looked in the mirror And things aren't looking so good I'm looking California And feeling Minnesota Oh yeah So now you know Who gets mystified So now you know Who gets mystified Show me the power child, I'd like to say That I'm down on my knees today Yeah it gives me the butterflies, gives me away 'Til I'm up on my feet again Hey I'm feeling Oh I'm feeling Outshined, outshined, outshined, outshined Oh yeah Well someone let the dogs out They'll show you where the truth is The grass is always greener Where the dogs are shitting Oh yeah Well I'm feeling that I'm sober Even though I'm drinking Well I can't get any lower Still I feel I'm sinking So now you know Who gets mystified So now you know Who gets mystified Show me the power child, I'd like to say That I'm down on my knees today Yeah it gives me the butterflies, gives me away 'Til I'm up on my feet again I'm feeling Oh I'm feeling Outshined, outshined, outshined, outshined Ooh yeah Outshined So now you know Who gets mystified Show me the power child, I'd like to say That I'm down on my knees today Yeah it gives me the butterflies, gives me away 'Til I'm up on my feet again Oh I'm feeling Oh I'm feeling Show me the power child, I'd like to say That I'm down on my knees today And yeah it gives me the butterflies, gives me away 'Til I'm up on my feet again Oh I'm feeling Oh I'm feeling Outshined, outshined, outshined, outshined
