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...
