lyrics

So you say
This is nothing but the end of the day
So of course I should just go my own way
I don't know
That leaves me with little to show
When the sun goes down it really begins
On this side of town where nobody wins
So you say

Just in case
You've mistakenly arrived at this place
Nonetheless you've earned your share of disgrace
Everyone
Has to pay for what they have done
Keep in mind it's but a roll of the dice
Keep an eye out for a much better price
Just in case

Okay it's coming
Wait here stand back
Everybody knows this story
Too late
Well Hell

Are you sure? Not bad
No one seems sad
This is different, unexpected

Is that right? All red
Not quite so dead
Am I dreaming, self protecting?

What's this now? Awake
It's no mistake
I can't go back, this could be worse

Time slows down and shatters
Eventually nothing matters
Look around discover
Your sister and your brother
Everybody knows this story so very well
Everybody lives this story without fail

Okay it's coming
Wait here stand back
Everybody knows this story
Too late
Well Hell

So you say
Learn to close your eyes it might go away
But you know the devil
And in fact this story never goes away
So you see this story never goes away
Oh well
