Swimming on the surface
It´s a hell of a lot safer up here
Ain´t prepared to dive
And uncover all my darkest fears
This ain´t no covert operation
I don´t have that much concentration

Staring at the clock
And my patience is wearing thin
One more down the gullet
Keeps me from jumping out of my skin
This ain´t no covert operation
I´m lost in this fog of contradiction

I toast to the extras
I drink to them cause they don´t talk too much
They fill up space and entertain
And when I cut em loose, they don´t make a fuss
They all add up to zero in my mind
They´re just here to cure the boredom for the night

Now sometimes this leaves me feeling hollow
That´s when I take refuge in my pillow
This ain´t no covert operation
I´m not even ready for confession

I toast to the extras
I drink to them cause they don´t talk too much
They fill up space and entertain
And when I cut em loose, they don´t make a fuss
They all add up to zero in my mind
They´re just here to cure the boredom for the night

That´s right
