I'm miss autonomy, miss nowhere I'm at the bottom of me Miss androgyny, miss don't care What I've done to me I am misused, I don't wanna do Be not your slave Misguided, I mind it I'm missin' the train And I don't know where I've been And I don't know what I'm into And I don't know what I've done to me And as I watch you disappear into the ground My one mistake was that I never let you down So I'll waste my time and I'll burn my mind On miss nothing, miss everything I'm miss fortune, miss so soon I'm like a bottle of pain Miss matter, you had her Now she's goin' away I'm misused, misconstrued I don't need to be saved Miss slighted, I mind it I'm stuck in the rain And I don't know where I am And I don't know what I'm into And I don't know what I've done to me And as I watch you disappear into the ground My one mistake was that I couldn't let you down So I'll waste my time and I'll burn my mind On miss nothing, miss everything Miss everything And as I watch you disappear into my head Well, there's a man who's tellin' me I might be dead So I'll waste my time and I'll burn my mind So I'll waste my time and I'll burn my mind On miss nothing, miss everything
