Now that I'm at the end of my line I stand at the edge of myself and look downnGuess I know that the best is behind me and the future is hard and realnThe moon is rough and the days are tough and the nights are my skinnHere I am standing up for the long one, the lifetime thinningnnNow I see why people throw themselves awaynAnd now I see why people live alonennAll the ones I know who's error been cut short and that's all paid offnSome might say that you're gone, but you'll always be here with menTo we are left short and we fall through the cracks and look backnSo hard to take it when you find that no one really caresnnNow I see why people throw themselves awaynAnd now I see why people live alonenNow I see why some people see blue skies, when others just see greynnLooking up from the bottom I see the stars in the skiesnI am therefore I go I go I go I go I gonn[lead break]nnThe cheering crowd has seen the winners, packed up and gone homenAn hour is a string pulled through the truth will never be toldnThe first to start and the last to quit whose longest and unknownnHere I am standing up for the last time I have nothin' but my willnnNow I see why people throw themselves awaynAnd now I see why people live alonenNow I see why some people see blue skies, when others just see grey
