[Verse 1]
I wear my tie like a bandage
Smile like I planned this
Burn toast, miss calls
Still I walk through the hall
Got keys in the freezer
Milk in the screen door
Late to my own rescue
Been here before
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, I know the look
Yeah, I know the game
I trip on the rug
Then I take the blame
[Chorus]
Highly-functioning idiot
(highly-functioning idiot)
I break it, then I fix it
(highly-functioning idiot)
Still standing in the wreckage
With a grin and a glitch
Highly-functioning idiot
And I own it like this
[Verse 2]
I sign the wrong paper
Call it a strategy
Talk my way out
Of my own gravity
Pocket full of batteries
Head full of static
One foot in trouble
One foot cinematic
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, I know the look
Yeah, I know the game
I trip on the rug
Then I take the blame
[Chorus]
Highly-functioning idiot
(highly-functioning idiot)
I break it, then I fix it
(highly-functioning idiot)
Still standing in the wreckage
With a grin and a glitch
Highly-functioning idiot
And I own it like this
[Bridge]
If I fall, I fall loud
If I fail, I fail hard
But I get back up
With a busted-up heart
[Chorus]
Highly-functioning idiot
(highly-functioning idiot)
I break it, then I fix it
(highly-functioning idiot)
Still standing in the wreckage
With a grin and a glitch
Highly-functioning idiot
And I own it like this
