Degenerates

Another morning I wake up without exception Though I guess now it's closer to the afternoon And I am not the first one tired of this tradition But the last to go sleep alone with you And I breathe in the scent of coffee from the kitchen I hear the laughter spilling from the other room So I drag my body up and join the living An exception almost right on cue I never would have thought It could ever be this good And I know each moment's fleeting But right now I feel like I'm right where I should be I am not a perfect man, I fuck up often At least I never have to wonder why I came If you're honest with yourself, I'll bet it's painful But you and I are far less different than they say So where do you fit in? So where do you fit in? Another night the sun goes down without exception I hear the matches playing from the other room It's been a day since I have glanced at my reflection No words of judgment coming from our crew We start a fire just as the stars arrive And I am lost within the flames Until a touch from you brings me back To what feels like the perfect day So why is it she'd think Some people never feel alive Don't they know each moment's fleeting I can't help but feeling I'm right where I should be I am not a perfect friend or perfect lover Oh, I admit sometimes I have too many drinks But we are all degenerates, half on the inside And you and I are far less different than they say So where do you fit in? So where do you fit in? I think I found my place to fill that empty space That feeling we all chase (So where do you fit in?) And we can sing off key as long as we all see We sing it beautifully My head was heavy with thoughts when I got home I started to focus on my fears I thought of dying alone But how I hate to get caught in pointless thought Self pity gets me nowhere I guess we've all got things we're still working out I think I found my place I think I found my place I think I found my place I think I found my place
