Surprise, surprise, this is the end Surprise, surprise, this is the end When all you've idolized is dead and gone, you'll realize you've won When all you've built yourself up on has crashed and burned We're digging graves for old memories And it's safe to say that I'll be home late And as those dreams of yours, they fizzle out
