Lyrics

Shut down

We are growing spiritless If no one cares, then who is gonna save us? Give us euphoria

Worn out Everything will fall apart So shine a light and warm up this heavy heart Give us euphoria

Brooding I need renewing I want satisfaction A gut reaction

Give us euphoria Give us euphoria It's been all work and no play Give us euphoria Give us euphoria I need to numb all the pain

Wake up We're becoming restless Our last hope and only you can save us Give us euphoria Sealed off to numb all the pain We are running out of air So start a fire and spice up this love affair Give us euphoria

Brooding I need renewing I need satisfaction A gut reaction

Give us euphoria Give us euphoria It's been all work and no play Give us euphoria Give us euphoria I need to numb all the pain

Euphoria Give us euphoria It's been all work and no play Give me euphoria I need euphoria

I need to numb all the pain...
