I know how its all gonna end
What turned to lovers that started as friends
Will slowly fade to strangers and then
I'll find another to do it again
I stare at the ceiling, feeling regret
Whisper to myself, "Is this the best that it'll get?"
And as my eyes close, I drift off to sleep
I wake in the morning with my day on repeat
And I say
"Get up and brush your teeth, comb your hair
Head off to work, nothing waiting for you there
Get on the train, head on back home
Turn on the tube and watch alone
Or grab a drink, out with a friend
Put on a smile; you've got to pretend"
I know, I know, I know this
Its's all sounding one noted
What can we do to change it?
What can we do to make things better?
I know I need to change it
I know I need to make things better
I feel like I'm caged in
I feel like I'm tied and tethered
Maybe I need some saving
Maybe I need to make things
I wake up at the same time
Put on the same clothes
And head on my way
Think things with the same mind
Smell with the same nose
And get through my day
Come home to the same house
To the same room
Let the music play
Go to sleep in the same bed
Next to the same space
Let the lights just fade
And I say
"Get up and brush your teeth, comb your hair
Head off to work, nothing waiting for you there
Get on the train, head on back home
Turn on the tube and watch alone
Or grab a drink, out with a friend
Put on a smile; you've got to pretend"
I know, I know, I know this
Its's all sounding one noted
