Doncamatic Down lowly Make up for the time you've wasted Come slowly And claim back the boy you left behind Close the white book Unplug the brain from the game 'Cause it's time to wipe out To the stars Get on the fame The song is not the same when we're All played out, played out, all played out They said the memories All fade out, fade out, all fade out Tell me did you feel that? Don't slow down Even if it's only to escape Just down, low down Before somebody steals your place man Close the white book Unplug the brain from the game 'Cause it's time to wipe out To the stars Get on the fame And the conversation's over We're all played out, played out, all played out (talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me) You see the memories All fade out, fade out, all fade out (talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me) Tell me did you feel that? Doncamatic Down lowly Make up for the time you wasted Come slowly Claim back the boy you left behind and Close the white book Unplug the brain from the game It's time to wipe out to the bar get on the fame The song is not the same when we're all played out, played out, all played out (talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me) You see the memories All fade out, fade out, all fade out (talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me) The song is not the same when we're All played out, played out, all auto tuned (talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me) The song is not the same when we're All played out, played out, played out, played out (talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me) tell me did you feel that?
