I The Mighty - Degenerates Lyrics






Another morning I wake up without exception
Though I guess now it's closer to the afternoon
And I am not the first one up as is tradition
But the last to go to sleep, along with you

And I breathe in the scent of coffee from the kitchen
I hear the laughter spilling from the other room
And so I drag my body up and join the living
A warm reception almost right on cue

And I never would have thought
It could ever be this good
And I know each moment's fleeting
But right now I feel like I'm right where I should be

I am not a perfect man, I fuck up often
At least I never have to wonder why I came
And if you're honest with yourself I bet it's painful
You and I are far less different than they say

So where do you fit in?
So where do you fit in?

Another night the sun goes down without exception
I hear The Matches playing from the other room
It's been a day since I have glanced at my reflection
No words of judgment coming from our crew

We start a fire just as the stars arrive
And I am lost within the flames
Until a touch from you brings me back
To what feels like the perfect day

So why is it you think
Some people never feel alive?
Don't they know each moment's fleeting?
I can't help but feeling I'm right where I should be

And I am not a perfect friend, a perfect lover
Oh I admit sometimes I have too many drinks
But we are all degenerates half on the inside
And you and I are far less different than they say

So where do you fit in?
So where do you fit in?

I think I found my place
To fill that empty space
That feeling we all chase
(So where do you fit in?)
And we can sing off key
As long as we all sing
We sing it beautifully

My head was heavy with thoughts when I got home
I started to focus on my fears, I thought of dying alone
But how I hate to get caught in pointless thought
Self-pity gets me nowhere
I guess we've all got things we're still working out

I think I found my place
I think I found my place
I think I found my place
I think I found my place

  1. u.... ....

    Just looked at lyrics to find the last line is "I think I found my place."
    My ears hear what they will but, "I think I felt my heart break." is what I hear.

  2. I.... B....

    Such a good song

  3. J.... L....

    Still on repeat I love it

    J.... L....

    Josiah Lutcher You’re still on repeat in my heart 😩
    Thanks for sending me this though ;) it’s a very good song that’ll fit nicely in my playlists! The graphic in the background is cool too :P
    I should probably just message you but I enjoy the idea of finding you in the comments by accident and responding here 🤠

  5. I.... ....

    god damn..

  6. J.... L....

    So fucking beautiful... this song is way too good

  7. H.... ....

    All my thinkings in a only song. I feel it and cried so hard. Nice job guys 💙

  8. M.... x....

    fucking amazing boys <3

  9. G.... S....

    Thank you for carrying your torch brightly. I have seen so many bands go too crazy and change instead of evolve. This is a newer sound to something like Satori but refined in a way that isn't alienating. Its rare when a band can keep blazing into new territory without losing their identity that made me fall in love with them in the first place. Keep it up guys.

  10. S.... C....

    the admins and I on a server on discord have declared this as our theme song, the server being called 'filthy degenerates'

  11. A.... C....

    December 2018?

  12. W.... M....

    Fucking degenerates

  13. F.... O....

    This album ia freaking bomb man

  14. S.... C....

    Todd Howard?

  15. J.... D....

    This is just the best song ever hands down

  16. G.... L....

    Anyone else annoyed, that the walking guy dont reach the other side of the screen?

    G.... L....

    I guess you can say that's "where the mind wants to go but this is where you let it go"

  17. M.... Z....

    I tried to find Todd Howard saying "degenerates" And found a fire song

    M.... Z....

    Did you buy Skyrim too?

  18. N.... S....

    31+ people have literally no taste in real music

  19. C.... R....

    Hello classic crime look a like, love it!!

  20. Y.... I....

    ghost atlas' last album reminds me of this

  21. H.... ....

    Excuse me for being stupid while saying this, but I really wish I knew the people this song was written for. who it's about or dedicated to, I mean.
    Because I get the exact feeling I used to have whenever I stayed at my friends' place.
    The first verse got me into this overwhelming feeling of nostalgia in particular :)

    H.... ....

    Its about his friends back home I belive he said.

  22. s.... e....

    aliens in disguise entrusted with the key to the music of the universe. thanks guys. keep writing.

  23. N.... ....

    this song.. it hits me hard emotionally.. I love it and I love this band..

  24. j.... l....

    This is a very good band!! With our last night will just be the best for a show !! Emotions with sound is perfect

  25. M.... C....

    Thank God for these free streams! Those little minute and a half clips on iTunes arent enough for me to decide if I should buy the album at all, so I'm thankful record companies upload full albums for free sampling.

  26. S.... S....

    3:30 to end

  27. H.... ....

    what the fuck is this trash

    H.... ....

    Guess that makes us possums.

  28. j.... e....

  30. P.... ....

    so glad i found this band

  31. T.... ....

    We all strive for a feeling of normalcy and to find purpose.

    T.... ....

    So where do you fit in?

  32. i.... h....

    Always loved the clean, pop-y vocals over solid drums and guitar. Takes a few listens to appreciate the intricacies of the music.

  33. O.... i....

    I've felt lost my entire life.  I still do.  This song is everything I needed right now.  Just goes to show how similar our human experiences actually are.  We're taught to believe all this divisive shit, but really we're more alike than ever...we're all just looking for our place.  Brilliant song, guys.    Thank you for this <3

    O.... i....

    You can't be lost if you have Coheed in your life.


    One among the Fence!

  34. M.... A....

    Nah "We Speak" was their unofficial first album. It wasn't on Equal Vision, and I'm not sure if it was ever officially released, but it's on YouTube. They never talk about it, or play anything from it, though.
