lyrics

I woke up this morning the same way
I've been waking up the last 500 days
Feeling like I'm gonna die right where I lay
And if I did then that would be okay
I can't remember when it all went so wrong
I can't believe that it's been going on for so long
Walking like a zombie, talking like a thief
Acting like half a man

Living in Disgraceland, baby
Living in Disgraceland, baby
I'm living in Disgraceland, baby
And I wanna go home, I wanna go home
I wanna go home

I used to light up every room in the old days
Never thought of giving up on the old ways
Never needed any sleep on the weekend
Kept my feet on the bottom of the deep end
I didn't know that I had to come up for air
I was drowning and I felt like I belonged there
Walking like a zombie, talking like a thief
Acting like half a man

Living in Disgraceland, baby
Living in Disgraceland, baby
I'm living in Disgraceland, baby
And I wanna go home, I wanna go home
I wanna go home

It's been such a long, long time now
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Can't remember what it's like now
(Oh no, oh no)
And I'm staring at the door
And I don't wanna be here
No, I don't wanna be here anymore

If I stay in the bed I'll be all right
If I get up instead it's a long night
I said goodbye to everyone I could ever trust
Most of all I gave up on us
When you're out in the world making sense of it
Do you ever think of me just a little bit?
Walking like a zombie, talking like a thief
Acting like half a man

Living in Disgraceland, baby
Living in Disgraceland, baby
I'm living in Disgraceland, baby
And I wanna go home, I wanna go home

I'm living in Disgraceland, baby
Oh, what do I do?
Every night I'm sleeping with a picture of you
Living in Disgraceland, baby
What do I get?
I never learned a lesson that I didn't forget
I'm living in Disgraceland, baby
Where do I go?
Just can't make it alone
And i wanna go home, I wanna go home
I wanna go home
