Maximo Park Lost Property Lyrics

To hope means cope
With every single aspect
Subtract the facts
Come to your own conclusion
The individual is privilege

When I ask how are you?
Maybe I just mean how am I?
I line up my complaints
And cram them into my reply
What will I think about tomorrow?

You'll find me in lost property
You'll find me sifting in the sea
Feeling too identified
Items I can't specify

You think of me as careless
A fact that I'm aware of
It's just a breakdown of my will
We'll call it a negative skill

Loss means cost
A fiscal impropriety
It's been non-stop
My mind is like a porous rock
Take me to Nostalgics Anonymous

You'll find me in lost property
You'll find me sifting in the sea
Feeling too identified
Items I can't specify

You think of me as careless
A fact that I'm aware of
It's just a breakdown of my will
You can call it a negative skill

To hope means cope
With every single aspect
Subtract the facts
Come to your own conclusion
What will I think about tomorrow?

You'll find me in lost property
You'll find me sifting in the sea
Feeling too identified
Items I can't specify

You think of me as careless
A fact that I'm aware of
It's just a breakdown of my will
You can call it a negative skill
