The Drifters Lyrics - Mansun

You never heard this one from me 

I wanted to belong to what I fear 

And we're supposed to laugh it off 

We're very limited in honesty 

A sense of belonging just for once in my life 

I thought you were God and Elvis, rolled into one 

This is my life and it's all I have 

Repeat after me we're drifting, repeat after me we're drifting 

Does he know? My life is still my own 

Repeat after me we're drifting, repeat after me we're drifting 

Does he know? My life is still my own 

There's no connection to my past 

And if it's hurting me, it's teaching me 

You took your pill today for sure 

You're desperate for your friends to like you more 

When Kennedy spoke, you'd hear America sigh 

The poor seeking solace in their God that's above 

We scream and we fight, it's all we have 

Repeat after me we're drifting, repeat after me we're drifting 

Does he know? My life is still my own 

Repeat after me we're drifting, repeat after me we're drifting 

Does he know? My life is still my own 

If I were a girl and you were born as a boy 

I'd know I'm still here when someone's hurting me badly 

Failure's beautiful to me 

Repeat after me we're drifting, repeat after me we're drifting 

Does he know? My life is still my own 

Repeat after me we're drifting, repeat after me we're drifting 

Does he know? My life is still my own 

Repeat after me we're drifting, repeat after me we're drifting 

Does he know? My life is still my own 

Repeat after me we're drifting, repeat after me we're drifting 

Does he know? My life is still my own
