Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm sleeping my way out of this one
With anyone who will lie down
I'll be stuck fixated on one star
When the world is crashing down
[Chorus]
I keep telling myself
I keep telling myself
I'm not the desperate type
But you've got me looking in through blinds
I keep telling myself
I keep telling myself
I'm not the desperate type
[Chorus]
Sitting out dances on the wall
Trying to forget everything that isn't you
I'm not going home alone
'Cause I don't do too well
Sitting out dances on the wall
Trying to forget everything that isn't you
I'm not going home alone
'Cause I don't do too well on my own
[Verse 2]
The only thing worse than not knowing
Is you thinking that I don't know
I'm having another episode
I just need a stronger dose
[Chorus]
I keep telling myself
I keep telling myself
I'm not the desperate type
But you've got me looking in through blinds
I keep telling myself
I keep telling myself
I'm not the desperate type
[Chorus]
Sitting out dances on the wall
Trying to forget everything that isn't you
I'm not going home alone
'Cause I don't do too well
I'm sitting out dances on the wall
Trying to forget everything that isn't you
I'm not going home alone
'Cause I don't do too well on my own
[Bridge]
Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta-ta
Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta-ta
Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta-ta
Doo-do-do, doo-do-do
[Bridge]
Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta-ta
Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta-ta
Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta-ta
Doo-do-do, doo-do-do
[Chorus]
I keep telling myself
I keep telling myself
I'm not the desperate type
You've got me looking in through blinds
[Chorus]
I keep telling myself
I keep telling myself
I'm not the desperate type
Sitting out dances on the wall
Trying to forget everything that isn't you
I'm not going home alone
'Cause I don't do too well on my own
