Running like a dog never making connections,
|
Keep your story straight if they question you,
|
Try to separate the feeling from the truth.
|
You're pulled in many directions, it's never a gamble.
|
Low risk low reward love is all you need.
|
But did you think that you could walk away so clean?
|
Yet you're staring at another strange ceiling again,
|
Though you swore you'd stay home and read,
|
Wondering when it is alright to leave,
|
So you just get dressed.
|
The door shuts behind you, the sun rears its head,
|
You race to your car through the cold morning dew,
|
Slightly annoyed and confused- she didn't seem to mind,
|
You didn't spend the night.
|
|
[Chorus]
|
This is the end,
|
Though I saw it coming before we went to bed,
|
No I never could be the one for you.
|
This is the end,
|
Though I saw it before we started,
|
And no one's gonna be broken-hearted here.
|
|
Staring straight ahead and never looking for answers,
|
Dumb yourself down it's a great disguise.
|
Try to separate omissions from the lies.
|
With low expectations then nobody's let down,
|
No long talks and no breakdowns on the way.
|
But isn't that what makes it worthwhile anyway?
|
Now you're pressed against somebody
|
Who you don't even like,
|
Though they're cute and they'll pass the time,
|
Kissing around their neck and not their mouth,
|
So they don't look in your eyes.
|
You lie down exhausted and riddled with doubt,
|
Then wait 'til they're sleeping and sneak towards the door
|
Careful not to make noise
|
Across the creaky wood floors:
|
They're not as cold as yours.
|
|
[Chorus x4]
|

This Is The End
