Brain Drain Lyrics - Lightning Seeds

Sometimes I feel really glad 

Looking back at the fun we've had 

But sometimes I want so much more 

Than this tug of war 

I'm longing for 

Swinging scenes in magazines 

They're just distant dreams now 

Some say it feels really bad 

When those vicious tongues, begin to wag 

But somehow all those paper lies 

Just anaesthetise the passers by 

The faceless clowns that put me down 

Don't bring me down

I'm lost inside this brain drain 

Taking me over 

Somehow, I get to play the fame game 

Lost inside this brain drain 

I used to long for 

A call to action, a strange attraction 

Somehow I'm not ready for 

Feeling bored and wanting more 

The radio plays like a uniform 

And dips you brains in chloroform 

They're so concerned 

The spoken word 

Seems so absurd 

I'm lost inside this brain drain 

Taking me over 

Somehow, I get to play the fame game 

Lost inside this brain drain 

I used to long for 

Photos 

A call to action, a strange attraction 

It's never the way it goes 

Just in time, too late to know 

I've realised 

I'm lost inside 

I'm mesmerised 

I'm lost inside this brain drain 

Taking me over 

Somehow, I get to play the fame game 

Lost inside this brain drain 

I used to long for
