Lyrics

SYCS

Blank your mind kid, blank your mind
Just blank your mind until it's fine
Just take me out, inspect my hair
Blame a song then switch it out
Yeah switch it out, I'm telling you
Take me out, detach, relent

It's all you have, it's all you hate
It's all in vain
Selling souls to the newly widowed on Priestly Lane
But it's all in vain

I'm sitting naked in a photograph
What's the point in expensive bands?
I wanna run, wanna see it in the sun
Wanna be that way on a one-way street

I'm someone you can't save
I'm someone you can't save

Blank your mind kid, blank your mind
Just blank your mind, it's killing time
Let the games become your friend
Blame them all, they did you wrong
They did you wrong, I'm telling you
Take 'em out, detach, repent

It's all you have, it's all you hate
It's all in vain
Selling souls to the newly widowed on Priestly Lane
But it's all in vain

I'm sitting naked in a photograph
What's the point in expensive things
I wanna run, wanna see it in the sun
Wanna be that way on a one-way street

I'm sitting naked in a photograph
I got a car and it's built to crash
I wanna run, wanna see it in the sun
Wanna be that way on a one-way street

I'm someone you can't save
I'm someone you can't save
I'm someone you can't save
