I took a pill and he pays up To show Avicii I was cool And when I finally got sober, felt ten years older But fuck it, it was something to do I'm living out in L.A. I drive a sports car just to prove I'm a real big baller cause I made a million dollars And I spend it on girls and shoes But you don't wanna be high like me Never really knowin' why like me You don't ever wanna step off that rollercoaster And be all alone And you don't wanna ride the bus like this Never knowin' who to trust like this You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singin' Stuck up on that stage singin' All I know Are sad souls Sad souls Darling, all I know Are sad souls Sad souls I'm just a singer Who already blew his shot I get along with old timers Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot And I can't keep a girl, no Cause as soon as the sun comes up I cut them all loose and work's my excuse But the truth is I can't open up Now you don't wanna be high like me Never really knowin' why like me You don't ever wanna step off that rollercoaster And be all alone And you don't wanna ride the bus like this Never knowin' who to trust like this You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singin' Stuck up on that stage singin' All I know Are sad souls Sad souls Darling, all I know Are sad souls Sad souls Hey I took a plane to my hometown I brought my pride and my guitar Well my friends are all gone But there's manicured lawns And the people still think I'm a star I walked around downtown, yeah I met some fans on live fire They said tell us how to make it Cause we're gettin' real impatient So I looked them in the eye and said You don't wanna be high like me Never really knowin' why like me You don't ever wanna step off that rollercoaster And be all alone And you don't wanna ride the bus like this Never knowin' who to trust like this You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singin' Stuck up on that stage singin' All that I know Are sad souls Sad souls Darling, all That I know Are sad souls Sad Souls
