Band Of Skulls - Cold Fame Lyrics

What's the point of fame if it's been abused?
What's a kid like me even got to lose?
Here I am on your bed again
It's too big for the room it's in

Wash your face and mouth just a little bit
Everybody knows that you're good at it
But nothin' hurts like an answer phone
Drinkin' some, wakin' up alone

Maybe if I try just a little more
I can take myself from this dirty floor
And walk through buildings of elegance
Just like you are intelligent

But still I fall from grace with this microphone
How'd you find yourself if you never roam?
Certainly, I'm indebted, baby
Certainly, certainly, yeah

I know my place but it don't know me
I know my place but it don't know me

No one wants to hear that you're breakin' up
It wasn't long ago we said, "Start me up"
Now all your dreamin' will have to wait
While you discern, you'll anticipate

Play your forty five with this late at night
Open all the windows, turn out the light
Mysterious creatures will fill the room
A midnight show just put on for you

But still I fall from grace with this microphone
How'd you find yourself if you never roam?
Certainly, I'm indebted, baby
Certainly, certainly, yeah

I know my place but it don't know me
I know my place but it don't know me

Cold fame in my brain, but
It's okay 'cause I know it's the best for me
Cold fame in my brain, but
It's okay 'cause I know it's the best for me

Cold fame in my brain, but
It's okay 'cause I know it's the best for me
Cold fame in my brain, but
It's okay 'cause I know it's the best for me

Cold fame in my brain, but
It's okay 'cause I know it's the best for me
Cold fame in my brain, but
It's okay 'cause I know it's the best for me

Cold fame in my brain, but
It's okay 'cause I know it's the best for me
Cold fame in my brain, but
It's okay 'cause I know it's the best for me

Cold fame in my brain, but
It's okay 'cause I know it's the best for me
Cold fame in my brain, but
It's okay 'cause I know it's the best for me
