The Wrong Way

I keep an eye on the future hoping to see the past
I keep telling myself that nothing could ever last
And if I catch my breath then I just won't relate
I've got 100 better things that I could do today
You better turn this thing around...
Before it's heading the wrong way
Could it be, it's only me that sees through this chicanery
Lumbering like elephants you're steppin' on my ivories
And if I catch my breath then I just won't relate
I've got 100 better things that I could do today
And if you turn around, I've got some things to say
I heard a hundred things about it on the news today
And you piss and you whine like you ain't got the time
But you're too busy wasting the best bits of mine
You better turn this thing around...
Before it's heading the wrong way

Nothin' At All

Well I'm a serial offender
of the things that I depend on
and I'm running out of things I can do
But I could run a couple others
with my sisters and my brothers
if I only knew what I had to lose
And here I go again pretending
that the world is far from ending
while I casually hold up the walls
I go inside myself for hours
'cause in there I've got the power
to imagine that I could have it all
Could I be fine
If I was nothin'
Or was it just another personal call
And would you mind
If I was nothin'
Because I'm starting to believe that I'm nothin' short of nothin' at all
Well there's a tiny bit inside me
that consistently defies me
and it's building other bricks in the wall
and if I give it more attention
then I'll have enough to mention
that I'm setting up the pieces to fall
Could I be fine
If I was nothin'
Or was it just another personal call
And would you mind
If I was nothin'
Because I'm starting to believe that I'm nothin' short of nothin' at all
I remember every time I could have walked away
But I can't recall a single reason that I stayed

You don't know baby
What I've been saving
When everything about you is so bad I wanna die
And everything I could have been is in another guy
And every time I get a break, I run away
I make mistakes
I don't know what it takes
I'm only one heartbreak away from you
I ain't complaining
I hate complaining
But I'm a walking contradiction, I'm the biggest lie
I'm setting myself up to be the thing that I despise
And every time I get a break, I stumble 'til I've
Lost the race - stuck in second place
I'm only one heartbreak away from you
I tried to see it your way
Now I know who you are
How'd I let it get this far?!
These thoughts invade me
It's overrated
Thinking you're the only one who has to run and hide
And dying for the fleeting moment that you feel alive
And giving up without a fuss...it's all too much
I made mistakes...
I worked out what it's gonna take
I'm giving up the time that had its hands on me too long
And I won't even think about the ways you've done me wrong
I'll think about your hand in mine and then in someone else's
And throw it down and pass it 'round
A HEARTBREAK FOR THE MASSES

If I told you I've been waiting
Far too long for this to all go wrong
Would you sing along?
And I know that I'm not crazy
When I say that this is not the way
I wanna play
Been a little time since I ran out of things I could say
Things look different today
This ain't goodbye it's just too much to bear
I go out of my mind over you
There's one thing that still pervades me
Desperate I stick to using mine
But still I find
Been a little time since I ran out of things I could say
Things look different today
This ain't goodbye it's just too much to bear
I go out of my mind thinking I must be crazy
Been a little time since I ran out of things I could say
(been a little time since I)
Things look different today
This ain't goodbye it's just too much to bear
I go out of my mind and I tried all the things that you told me to do but they just lead me right back, right back into you and I'll have one more try, saying this ain't goodbye, this ain't goodbye, this ain't goodbye...
It's hello!
