I love material but everything I love so quickly falls apart Keep it to myself and in my heart And I'm only as sick as my secrets So baby tell me what is my weakness? I called the therapist, she sent me to a circle to sort it out I've got my foot in my mouth My medicine stopped working for my sick soul Under the pressure, I fold
And I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy And I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy
I'm a material boy
Deeply American, which is to say I'm deeply ashamed I wonder what the world would say? And I'm probably sick from my secrets Politically daft, but we're in deep shit Can't tell the circle that the red has got me paranoid Superiority keeps me annoyed It bears repeating that I'm sick and I can't quit No longer Christian, but I'm still afraid of judgement
And I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy And I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy
I'm a material boy
I filled all my pockets Checked all the boxes I couldn't escape Still find myself obnoxious Prideful and godless Selfish and thoughtless Capital dream for material boy that I went and I lost it I went and I lost it all
And I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy And I opened up my heart and found a spiritual void (it's a spiritual world, I'm a material boy) This is a spiritual world, I'm a material boy (it's a spiritual world, I'm a material boy)
