Conor Oberst and The Mystic Valley Band - Nikorette lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] But I don't got time for this cuckoo clock And I don't want to go to your Mason Lodge There's nothing more sad than a lynching mob Full of rational men who believe in God [Verse 3] But nothing makes sense when the wave rolls through Nothing makes sense when the wave come through So it coulda been me or it coulda been you Whatever's in me is whatever's in you [Verse 4] My neighbor dreams big because his house is small Says all he needs now is some capital It's a pirate world, it's a free-for-all They steal your bright ideas and they make them dull [Verse 5] 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 [Verse 6] But I don't want to wear no dead man's suit I don't want to wear no dead man's suit I don't want to wait until the moon gets blue I don't want to wait until the moon turns blue [Chorus] Well, it's all just a fix Just one little hit You'll hold it in [Verse 7] 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 Cause I don't want to dream if it don't come true I don't want to dream if it don't come true If there's something in me, well, I guess it's in you If there's somewhere in me, then I know it's in you [Chorus] 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 And I don't want to dream if it won't come true I don't want to 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 If it happens to me, it's going to happen to you Whatever happens to me, it's going to happen to you
