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
