New Deep

John Mayer

I'm so alive
I'm so enlightened** I can barely survive
A night 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 it's the new deep
Down with the old me
Talk is the same cheap
It's been

Is there a guy
Why is he waiting
Don't you figure it out
When he knows my address
And look at the stars
Don't they 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

Now it's the new deep
Down with the old me
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'd say
This will last longer than the rest of the day
But you're wrong this time
You're wrong

Now it's the new deep
Down with the old me
I'm over the analyzing tonight
Stop trying to figure it out
(you try to figure, you try to figure it out)
It will only bring you down
You know I used to be the backporch poet with my book of lines always open
No and all the time I'm trying*
Never gonna find the perfect rhyme
For heavier things
