Nikorette Lyrics - Outer South - Conor Oberst

I'm just trying to stay a human being 

Sitting in the sun eating ice cream 

Texting my friend about a bad, bad dream 

Just had to tell someone who knows me 

But I don't got time for this cuckoo clock 

And I don't wanna go to your Mason lodge 

There's nothing more sad than a lynching mob 

Full of rational men who believe in God 

But nothing makes sense when the wave rolls through 

Nothing makes sense when the wave come through 

So it could've been me or it could've been you 

Whatever's in me is whatever's in you 

My neighbor dreams big 'cause his house is small 

Says all he needs now is some capital 

It's a pirate world, it's a free-for-all 

Just take your bright ideas and they make them dull 

Now everyone I see I think I've known before 

From the opera house to the grocery store 

My love for them I cannot ignore 

Like a human voice in a quiet morgue 

But I don't wanna wear no dead man's suit 

I don't wanna wear no dead man's suit 

I don't wanna wait until the moon gets blue 

I don't wanna wait until the moon turns blue 

It's all just a fix, just one little hit 

You'll hold it in 

Sitting on a plane chewing Nicorette 

Paradise lost, haven't found it yet 

Will you talk me down if I get upset? 

Be the cool washcloth to my fevered head 

Because I don't wanna dream if it won't come true 

I don't wanna dream if it don't come true 

If there's something in me then I guess it's in you 

If there's somewhere in me then I know it's in you 

Little baby stone 

Well, it's all just a fix, just one little hit 

You're holding in, you'll hold it in 

You're holding in, you'll hold it in 

I don't wanna dream if it won't come true 

I don't wanna dream if it don't come true 

If there's something in me then I know it's in you 

If there's somewhere in me then I know it's in you 

Whatever happens to me it's going to happen to you 

Whatever happens to me it's going to happen to you
