Inside Job

[Verse 1]
The main character
Won't come in from the cold
All the violence he's visited
It's riddled with rabbit holes
Push him off of the fourth wall
Before the conspiracy unfolds
Oh no

[Pre-Chorus - Bernard Fanning]
He says he tells it like it is
And you can't reason out
What wasn't reasoned in
He's a dramatic re-enactment
Of everything that never happened

[Chorus]
Don't you need someone?
Your heart's a cover-up
You don't need anyone
Don't you need someone?
Your head's an inside job
You don't need anyone
Anyone

[Verse 2]
Now the main character
Delivers the monologue
He's Atlas with the flat earth
Folded neat under his arm
Leaping off of the balcony
Like just another Hollywood astronaut
Oh no

[Pre-Chorus - Bernard Fanning]
And he knows we're in on it
But he can't figure out how we figure in
All of his precious man-hours spent
Just splashing around in the shallow end

[Chorus]
Don't you need someone?
Your heart's a cover-up
You don't need anyone
Don't you need someone?
Your head's an inside job
You don't need anyone
Anyone

[Bridge]
Now we're in on it
Baby, we're in on it
Now we're in on it
Baby, we're in on it
Now we're in on it

[Outro - Bernard Fanning & Paul Dempsey]
Don't you need someone?
(Someone, someone...)
Don't you need someone?
(Someone, someone...)
Don't you need someone?
(Someone, someone...)
Don't you need someone?
(Someone, someone...)
