Just Dandy - The End Lyrics

There's a life ahead of me, it could look a lot like a desert
An ocean of white I'd glimpse through tearful
Wincing sight, or it could be free
There could be a place for me to be
Somewhere far from that dry and boiling sea
But on top there's a tear stained phantom
A vision so faint, but still there
I see the life of a lonely man
I see scenes of never ending loss

I see a life that's full of cost
It's like waiting for impending regret
It's like our gift to this city's sunset
Something to set over, and one day explode, or so I'm told

It's like a memory
Like a memory that I'm waiting to live
But I'm happy for now to live this simple life
Though my fear is a pendulum hanging scythe
It won't have its way with me
I will laugh it off endlessly

It'll all be different
Yeah, you'll see
Besides, that distant desert can't be all bad
How can you miss something you never had?
But this time, who knows?
Who can say?
How much could change with three words in one day?
