Lyrics:
Verse 1:
I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
Chorus:
I think I'm dumb
or maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy
Verse 2:
my heart is broke
But I have some glue
help me inhale
And mend it with you
We'll float around
And hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down
Chorus 2:
And have a hangover...
Have a hangover
Bridge:
Skin the sun
Fall asleep
Wish away
The soul is cheap
Lesson learned
Wish me luck
Soothe the burns
Wake me up
Outro:
I think I?m Dumb, I think I?m Dumb
