new deep

John Mayer

I?m so alive
I?m so enlightened
I can barely survive
And not in my mind
So I?ve got a plan
I?m gonna find out just how boring I am
And have a good time

Cause ever since I tried
Trying not to find
Every little meaning in my life
It?s been fine
I?ve been cool
With my new golden rule

Now is the new deep
Down with the old me
And talk is the same cheap it?s benn

Is there a God?
Why is He waiting?
Don?t you tink of it odd
When he knows my address?
And look at the stars
Don?t it remind you just how feeble we are?
Well it used to, I guess

Cause ever since I tried
Trying not to find
Every little meaning in my life
It?s been fine
I?ve been cool
With my new golden rule

Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
And talk is the same cheap it?s been

I' m a new man
I wear a new cologne and
You wouldn?t know me if your eyes were closed

I know what you?ll say
?This won?t last longer than the rest of the day?
But you?re wrong this time

Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
I?m over the analyzing tonight

Stop trying to figure it out
Deep will only bring you down
You know, I used to be back porch poet with a book of rhymes
Always open knowing all the time I'm probably
Never gonna find the perfect rhyme
For 'heavier things'
