Running like a dognNever making connectionsnKeep your story straightnIf they question you,nTry to separate the feelingnFrom the truth.nnYou're pulled in many directions,nIt's never a gamble.nLow risk low rewardnLove is all you need.nBut did you think thatnYou could walk away so clean?nnYet you're staring at anothernStrange ceiling again,nThough you sworenYou'd stay home and read,nWondering when it is alright to leave,nSo you just get dressed.nnThe door shuts behind you,nThe sun rears its head,nYou race to your carnThrough the cold morning dew,nSlightly annoyed and confused--nShe didn't seem to mind,nnYou didn't spend the night...nnThis is the end,nThough I saw it comingnBefore we went to bed,nNo I never could be the one for you.nnThis is the end,nThought I saw it comingnBefore we started andnNo one's gonna be broken-hearted here.nnStaring straight aheadnNever looking for answers,nDumb yourself downnIt's a great disguise.nTry to separate omissions from the lies.nWith low expectationsnnThen nobody's letdown,nNo long talks andnNo breakdowns in the way.nBut isn't that what makes it worthwhile anyway?nNow you're pressed against somebodynWho you don't even like,nnThough they're cutenAnd they'll pass the time,nKissing around their necknAnd not their mouth,nSo they don't look in your eyes.nYou lie down exhaustednnAnd riddled with doubt,nThen wait 'til they're sleepingnAnd sneak towards the door,nCareful not to make noisenAcross the creaky wood floors...nnThey're not as cold as yours.nnThis is the end,nThough I saw it comingnBefore we went to bed,nNo I never could be the one for you.nnThis is the end,nThough I saw it comingnBefore we started andnNo one's gonna be broken-hearted here.nnThis is the end,nThough I saw it comingnBefore we went to bed,nNo I never could be the one for you.nnThis is the end,nThough I saw it comingnBefore we started andnNo one's gonna be broken-hearted here.nnThis is the end,nThough I saw it comingnBefore we went to bed,nNo I never could be the one for you.nnThis is the end,nThough I saw it comingnBefore we started andnNo one's gonna be broken-hearted here.
