[Verse 1]
Making your way through the day
Every arrangement has been made
Forget to remember
To dress for the weather
[Verse 2]
Danger lives just up ahead
Walking through mine fields as you dance
Retracing your footsteps
Abandon your address
[Chorus]
Sometimes I think it would feel so nice
If I could dumb myself down
Down
Dumb myself (Down, down, down)
Down
Dumb myself down
[Verse 3]
Comfortable in your own mess
Stepping outside to get some air
Like everyone ever
Alone and together
[Chorus]
Sometimes I think it would be so nice
If I could dumb myself down
Down
Dumb myself (Down, down, down)
Down
Dumb myself
[Bridge]
Don't stop listening
Don’t stop listening
'Cause I'm coming to the point, I swear
Don’t stop listening
Don't stop listening
'Cause I'm coming to the point
[Outro]
My lips said something profound
But the noise was so loud
The words get hard to pronounce (I can hear you now)
Next time it comes back around (I can hear you now)
In the absence of doubt (I can hear you now)
When I open my mouth (I can hear you now)
The words will finally come out (I can hear you now)
(I can hear you now)
(I can hear you now)
(I can hear you now)
(I can hear you now)
(I can hear you now)
(I can hear you now)
(I can hear you now)
[Refrain]
Down
Down
Dumb myself (Down, down, down)
Down
Down
