Cold War Kids - Ordinary Idols lyrics

[Cold War Kids - Ordinary Idols lyrics]

I spiral down again
Such a struggle just to keep an ordinary love
Ain't got the time for friends
Why am I working so hard
And barely keeping up?

Who remains when you drop?
Who to call when it stops?
I spiral down again
Somebody protect me or I'm gone

Why would you idolize me?
There's nothing I got that you don't
You keep on fantasizing
I'll always be the underdog give me more
Give me more
I'm the one you that you ignored
Give me more give me more
I'm the one you that you ignored

Where'd you find your confidence?
Are you willing to make a
Fool out of yourself?
It's a curse of common sense
We all wanna be something different
Someone else

You become what you watch
What I learned can't be taught
Imitation is not a sin
You are only guilty if you're caught

Why would you idolize me?
There's nothing I got that you don't
You keep on fantasizing
I'll always be the underdog give me more
Give me more
I'm the one you that you ignored
Give me more give me more
I'm the one you that you ignored

This city's made for dreaming
It's like a Garden of Eden
Before the apple eating
We would just sleep and drink
And play all day
But, you will never fall in love
Oh you wanna be lifted up
You just wanna fall in love
No you will never fall in love

Why would you idolize me?
There's nothing I got that you don't
Obsessing, fantasizing
I'll always be the underdog give me more
Give me more
Give me more, give me more, give me more
I'm the one you that you ignored
