    Lyrics
    
    Verse 1
    Call and I'll answer
    At home in the lost and found
    You say that I'm much too proud
    Someone who's taken pleasure
    In breaking down
    
    Never mind the mannequins
    Drunk in their hollow town
    Drinking their spoils down
    Cheap imitations
    A revelation is now
    
    Chorus
    Yeah, you won't find me
    I'm going M.I.A.
    Tonight I'm leaving
    Going M.I.A.
    Getting lost in you again
    Is better than being numb
    
    Verse 2
    Counting every minute
    Till the feeling comes crashing down
    Run when it hits the ground
    I'm good at escaping,
    But better at flaking out
     
    Calling unanswered
    The center becomes blown out
    Stuck on the inside now
    It's fear I'm embracing
    I never could face you down
    
    Chorus
    
    Bridge
    Red, red, laced around your head
    Cold and rescued
    
    Repeat verse 1
    
    Yeah, you won't find me
    I'm going M.I.A.
    Tonight I'm leaving
    Going M.I.A.
    So you don't find me
    I'm going M.I.A.
    Tonight I'm leaving
    Going M.I.A.
    Say goodbye to me
    I'm going M.I.A.
    I can find relief
    I'm going M.I.A.
    Getting lost in you again
    Is better than being numb
    
    Better than playing dumb
