Blame me for the elevator - I know you will
It’s not me who’s the operator but you’re going down
You’ll be sorry when you’re singing all alone

But don’t take me up
I’ll just fall down once again
Don’t take me up
I’ll just fall down

Wake me when you’re educated - I know you will
You’ll be self-medicated - you’re spinning round
You’ll be there, but no one will even know your name

But don’t take me up
I’ll just fall down once again
Don’t take me up
I’ll only find my way back down
Don’t take me up
It’s true I’ve dabbled at times with confident lines
I was half of a man nearly half of the time
In an innocent way, I thought it could stay with us both on the ground
With us fooling around
Let’s just stay on the ground
Let’s stay fooling around on the ground

Don’t take me up
I’ll just fall down like I knew that I would.
Don’t take me up
I’ll only find my way back down
Don’t take me up
I’ll just fall down

Don’t get mad if I’m laughing
Blame the caffeine for all the 5 am phone calls
I haven’t slept a single night in over a month
And not even once did you start to make sense to me
Well maybe I’m a little bit slow, or just consistently inconsistent
She said, "Unpredictability’s my responsibility, baby."

But you’re waiting at the door where everybody’s hanging out  just like they hung out before
You didn’t have to do it but you did it to say
That you didn’t have to do it but you would anyway

To give you something to go on when I go off back to the middle of nowhere
To give you something to go on when I go off back to the middle of nowhere
They chewed me up and then they spit me out
And I’m not supposed to let it bother me
But maybe I’m a little bit weak - I let my frailty take the wheel
She said, "Maybe there’s a bit of me waiting for a bit of you. baby."

But you’re waiting at the door where everybody’s hanging out just like they hung out before
You didn’t have to do it but you did it to say
That you didn’t have to do it but you would anyway

To give you something to go on when I go off back to the middle of nowhere

To give you something to go on when I go off back to the middle of nowhere
To give you something to go on - to go on back to the middle of nowhere
