But what if this paradise is false?
Cuz I ain't seen you in a while
Though time is hard to measure in a backward existence
I know it's been a real long time
And though I go on laughing I hardly feel fine
But hey, what do I know?
I'm just now getting the full impact of the blow of that one day (sorry) one f*ckin night
But yeah, that's all I get so I guess it's better than death
Though it was barely even a kiss
Just a timeshares worth of bliss
And now I feel bored and boring
But hey, don't let this bullshit get to you
Max, I wish that I could see the way that you do
The that way you exploit those miracles, just to have some fun
Well, I'm glad that it's worked so well
And since I've known you my boredom's ceased to swell
It's like being lost in France
And finding someone else in a similar circumstance
And though I am far from home
I'm far from alone
True maybe I never met you
But in another possible life, in another future past I could've held your hand
And we'd look up at the sky
And we'd watch our world fry
And we'd be smiling
So let's wake up and become the Jack who forgot about Sally
And changed his name
And choked down the pain
Living in his city
Dreaming of her pretty scarred face
Dreaming of the day that never came
It's always too late
I've lost my only chance at finding fate
