That's when she said it's not the end of the world
You can start a new life and if you find a new girl
It's neither here nor there
A balancing act if I pretend to care
It's not that I don't
It's just that I can't wear your flowers in my hair

Why should we go on another lie
Another try to make things right, to win another silent fight?
Life isn't long but any day can be
How we get by depends on how much we need
To think we've got it made

Why? Why do the babies cry?
Why? Why do the losers try?
Why? Why does a fool ask why?

All around us ground is blowing up
While the sky is falling down
Grim projections see projectiles sailing
Past the speed of sound
Our leaders guard against their own exposure
To the fallout in their sealed-enclosure domes
Their emissaries ever-pleasured,
Trade in treasures they have seized
Tributaries, rivers carry
Poison perils to the sea

I see the side of all the whereas on the one hands
I take the point of all of those opposed to a stand
I'd really rather not get caught up in a quarrel
Between intractable ideas
About how we ought to get nothing done
I see all sides of the creatures creepin' on by

I see the side of everyone who thinks they're right
Sometimes I'll watch 'em try to turn with all their might
I carry 'round or keep in mind the weight of the world
Rarely blown away by surprises
Or taken aback when the talk dumbs down
I see both sides of faces passing me by

The obvious is not about to happen
And when it doesn't
Will your eyes be wise to the surprise?

She's got a reason to love me
But she doesn't seem to wanna have to do that
And though she's got a half a mind to cross me out
She just too busy scribblin' her do-dats

Leave me all day and night to suffer
It's a pain just gettin' out of these pajamas
When I hear the call to put on a pair of pants
Everytime I wanna jump back

And what would be a reason to love me?
I pitched it to the preacher while a-preenin' on the altar
He say, every able body bow a head and pray
All of God's children are invited to the house

So I thought I had a blanket invitation
But I couldn't find a thing to do with it
For she had a reason to do me right
And she could not even bring herself to do that

Don't let those regrets that fill your head
Become dark secrets to your debt
It's best to reset and forget all of the wrongs
You done your love
Livin'-n-learnin' is movin' along

No 'mount o' regret can ease your pain
You gotta get to your next stage
It's not a secret that everyone makes mistakes
We all take turns
But some learn from them while others just burn

Don't let those regrets spin you round
Don't let dark secrets weigh you down
Forget those regrets

Down at the bar on the edge of the road
Shines the light o' my life tonight
People I love lettin' push come to shove
And the bouncer's just a-spoilin' for the fight that's gonna earn him his stripes

Money's on the table for another round, bottles in flight
Some bodies crashin' through the window
Honey bunnies leanin' back waitin' for a gasket to blow
At the moment of crescendo

Raisin' the bar for the next episode
It's everyone to another
Lover, leave a light on tonight

Behold the freak
Standing alone on a landscape barren and bleak
Cold as a heart on an island of honesty

Lines fade as time races on
Behind the face an idea's trace is gone
Stolen into hideaway
Eyes can't hold the light of day

Motion's wings sucked down under the sea
Spell Poseidon's tidal retreat
Piloted by the god's empty seat
Does darkness provide some reason?

Truth showed a way
I fell into its trance
Surrendering all chance to understand what life is
