Cold War Kids - Don't Look Down on Me lyrics

I erase those names from my memory banks Get the wind knocked out Not the hurricane I deserted you This is no blame game I had to go out and find my own way Yeah, I used you up when I needed food Snuck out the back door We exchanged no words Yeah it hurt me, too But I could not hurt I was only in chapter three of my book Don't look down on me Don't look down on me Don't look down on me Don't look down on me I give you my best Though it don't make sense Not to keep in touch To pretend it's worth less 'Cause I've got to live in the present tense But I still think of you when I look ahead Don't look down on me Don't look down on me Don't look down on me Don't look down on me Did you - confuse? Cut-loose? Hearin' news Did you - abuse? And recluse? Don't look down on me Don't look down on me Don't look down on me Don't look down on me Don't look down on me On me, on me, on me
