Adds up a shame to leave it so unresolved Shakes all the sheathing loose from the wire Time's going to be a luxury now in the responsibility empire So give me some false hope I can take seriously Set me some road blocks I can't break through And watch what I'll risk to get what I want I think too much I always do No changing your side No thinking it's time to start things over No favors denied No, not on the last day that we're young Hang up the faces, Lon Chaney, your day's gone 'Cause each one is one less chance you can win No one can get behind what they all say And so you lose before you begin What was it we were always wanting? Didn't we know we had it all? Show me some tear-eyed beauty that disappears Every time I might happen along Opalesque, eye-lined, owning the day When it comes I'll have been proven wrong No changing your side No thinking it's time to start things over No favors denied No, not on the last day that we're young No changing your side No thinking it's time to start things over No favors denied No, not on the last day that we're young What was it we were always wanting? Didn't we know we had it all?
