M. I. A. - Lyrics by Foo Fighters


Lyrics
Verse 1
Call and I'll answer
At home in the lost and found
You say that I'm much too proud
Someone who's taken pleasure
In breaking down
Never mind the mannequins
Drunk in their hollow town
Drinking their spoils down
Cheap imitations
A revelation is now
Chorus
Yeah, you won't find me
I'm going m.i.a.
Tonight I'm leaving
Going m.i.a.
Getting lost in you again
Is better than being numb
Verse 2
Counting every minute
Till the feeling comes crashing down
Run when it hits the ground
I'm good at escaping,
But better at flaking out
Calling unanswered
The center becomes blown out
Stuck on the inside now
It's fear I'm embracing
I never could face you down
Chorus
Bridge
Red, red, laced around your head
Cold and rescued
Repeat verse 1
Yeah, you won't find me
I'm going m.i.a.
Tonight I'm leaving
Going m.i.a.
So you don't find me
I'm going m.i.a.
Tonight I'm leaving
Going m.i.a.
Say goodbye to me
I'm going m.i.a.I can find relief
I'm going m.i.a.
Getting lost in you again
Is better than being numb
Better than playing dumb
