| If I were the betting kind I bet you thought the easy life
|
| Was the one you thought you’d live by
|
| And all you had to do was decide
|
| A swimming pool size
|
| Well, you’re right
|
| I wish there was an ending to spoil
|
| So as long as I’m thinking
|
| How about a great tragedy?
|
| Where I imagine fire and glass and taillights blinking
|
| We’ll see
|

|
| Well, you’re right
|
| I wish there was an ending to spoil
|
| So as long as I’m thinking
|
| About a horrible scene
|
| Where I can watch your hopes and your dreams
|
| Just blow into pieces
|
| Before me?
|
| Is there something to learn
|
| Or something to see?
|
| Because nothing to lose
|
| Is not nothing to be
|
| Haven’t you
|
| Heard the messages
|
| Haven’t you
|
| Read the passages
|
| There’s a ghost who
|
| Is going to haunt me for all my life
|
| I’ll bet he never touches you
|
| I guess the differences
|
| Between us 3-
|
| They make our open books awful hard to read
|
| Maybe I’ve
|
| Been painting you
|
| With all the wrong brushes too
|
| Maybe you
|
| Really know
|
| What too much is, well…
|
| Well maybe you do
|
| I wish there was an ending to spoil
|
| So as long as I’m thinking
|
| How about a great tragedy?
|
| Where I imagine fire and glass and taillights blinking
|
| We’ll see
|
| Because nothing to lose is not nothing to be
|
| Because nothing to lose is not nothing to me |
