Awful Thinker Songtext
von New Native

I shouldn′t have stayed up knowing I'm an awful thinker
I shouldn′t have stayed up knowing I'll be down again
I shouldn't have stayed up knowing I′m an awful thinker
I should have stayed down in bed
Down in bed
Down in bed

And I learned from all the kids in the parking lot
To bend the little things setting you apart
I know what I want isn′t true desire but it's what I deserve
And I learned from all the kids in the parking lot
That nothing′s going to fix what you tear apart
I know what I want and I've got to get it all
I shouldn′t have stayed up knowing I'm an awful thinker
I shouldn′t have stayed up knowing I'll be down again
I shouldn't have stayed up knowing I′m an awful thinker
I should have stayed down in bed
Down in bed
Down in bed


And I learned from all the kids in the parking lot
To choke on all the things that you want the most
I know what I want isn′t true desire but it's what I deserve
And I learned from all the kids in the parking lot
To think a little bigger and professional
I know what I want and I′ve got to get it all

Show me persistence
In being firm
How to contain yourself
When you're all alone

Is it a blessing
Or something worse?
How to contain yourself
When you′re all alone

But if I don't learn much quicker
How to compose these inner tides
I might as well take it all together
So there′s an end to it where I feel satisfied
I shouldn't have stayed up knowing I'm an awful thinker
I shouldn′t have stayed up knowing I′ll be down again
I shouldn't have stayed up knowing I′m an awful thinker
I should have stayed down in bed
Down in bed
Down in bed
