lyrics

THANK YOU. WE NEVER REMEMBER TO SAY THANK YOU
SO NOW I SAY IT EVERY TIME I WALK INTO A ROOM.
ALL THIS TIME HAS GONE BY BUT WE NEVER COULD BREAK THROUGH THE ICE.
AND IT’S TURNING AND IT’S TURNING. ALL THE LITTLE THINGS WE NEVER DO. AND IT’S TURNING AND IT’S TURNING. EVERY PROMISE THAT WE MAKE GETS BROKEN

WE’RE LOST. WE DON’T CARE ANYMORE.
IT FILLS OUR HEARTS WITH JOY TO BREAK
BREAK THROUGH THE SILENCE
AND STEP INTO WHAT WE WERE MEANT FOR

EXILED FOR NOT BEING FRIENDLY. WE NEVER LEARNED HOW TO PLAY ALONG. EXILED WITH OUR HEADS IN THE SMOG FOR TRYING TO TOUCH THE FACE OF GOD.

AND YOU SEE IT AND IT COMES AND GOES BUT YOU NEVER REALLY GET AN ANSWER. AND YOU SEE IT AND YOU KNOW IT AND THEN IT’S GONE

NOT LIKE WE’RE NOT THERE ANYMORE AN EMPIRE BORN IN A BEDROOM TO WAIT, WAIT TIL IT’S QUIET THERE’S SOMETHING I’VE BEEN MEANING TO ASK YOU.

MEET ME FOR A PINT. THE RECEIVERS AND THE DANCERS. ON THIS SOLEMN NIGHT. BAD JOKES TOLD BY OUR FATHERS WHERE AN AGING NATION GATHERS IN FROM THE UNFOLDING UNKNOWN.

DON’T YOU WANT TO BE EXCITED??
DON’T YOU WANT TO BE EXCITED??
DON’T YOU WANT TO BE EXCITED??
WATCHING OUR FAILURES FROM THE SIDELINE.

SO MEET ME FOR A PINT.
WHAT WE BEGAN CANNOT END HERE ON THIS AUTUMN NIGHT.
