Lyrics
"Common"
Where in the fuck did I go
You had no t-shirt on
A detail I don’t need to know
Oh please block me now
With so much going on
Your story’s got me feeling so low
Common phenomenon
Yet again my thumb is numb
Common phenomenon
Oh my thumb, no!
I can’t leave this low
I had it coming long ago
I can’t leave this low
I can’t see it slow
These things just come and go and no
I can’t see it slow
Where’s my luck right now
I double tapped my phone
I figure that your screen will glow
They told me all to let it go
Act like I’m eating snow
Yet/and I can’t put on a show
Common phenomenon
Common phenomenon
Common phenomenon
Yet again my thumb is numb
Common phenomenon
Oh my thumb, no!
I can’t heal
When I can feel
The breaking of dawn
I gotta feel right
I can’t leave this low
I had it coming long ago
I can’t leave this low
I can’t see it slow
These things just come and go and no
I can’t see it slow
