Degenerates

I the Mighty

5

Another morning I wake up without exception

Though I guess now it′s closer to the afternoon

And I am not the first one tired of this traditionBut the last to go sleep alone with you

And I breathe in the scent of coffee from the kitchen

I hear the laughter spilling from the other room

So I drag my body up and join the living

An exception almost right on cue

I never would have thought

It could ever be this good

And I know each moment's fleeting

But right now I feel like I′m right where I should be

I am not a perfect man, I fuck up often

At least I never have to wonder why I came

If you're honest with yourself, I'll bet it′s painful

But you and I are far less different than they say

So where do you fit in?

So where do you fit in?

Another night the sun goes down without exception

I hear the matches playing from the other room

It′s been a day since I have glanced at my reflection

No words of judgment coming from our crew

We start a fire just as the stars arrive

And I am lost within the flames

Until a touch from you brings me back

To what feels like the perfect day

So why is it she'd think

Some people never feel alive

Don′t they know each moment's fleeting

I can′t help but feeling I'm right where I should be

I am not a perfect friend or perfect lover

Oh, I admit sometimes I have too many drinks

But we are all degenerates, half on the inside

And you and I are far less different than they say

So where do you fit in?

So where do you fit in?

I think I found my place to fill that empty space

That feeling we all chase

(So where do you fit in?)

And we can sing off key as long as we all see

We sing it beautifully

My head was heavy with thoughts when I got home

I started to focus on my fears

I thought of dying alone

But how I hate to get caught in pointless thought

Self pity gets me nowhere

I guess we′ve all got things we're still working out

I think I found my place

I think I found my place

I think I found my place

I think I found my place
