Mike Mogis - Mayan Nights lyrics

And every night he needs to party Like it's the end of times Gilded Mayans descend from heaven Desires in their eye They raze the landscape, I'll raise a toast While wasted in strange arms(?) No back-alley lobotomy Could tear me away from you Oh I can feel it from my head to my toes The man I was, you once loved, is almost a ghost I feel it, from my bones to my marrow The man I was, you once loved, is almost a shadow (quiet!) We used to drink to make trouble and fun But now we drink to forget our troubles And everybody needs somebody To shovel their hurt on Logistics say you burn all your bridges The savages stop attacking your village What's the point, what's the purpose When you're left with a life that's pillaged And I, I can feel it The man I was, you once loved, is almost gone And I, I can't deal with it The man I was was weak, but now I'm strong And I, I can't live through this The man i was was lost, but now I'm... ...doomed!
