Lyrics:
Just a simple change of scenery
From 360 degrees
Maybe it's all we need
6, 5, 4, 3
Welcome to the last minute
And we've spent it on a sound byte
A phrase, a well thought out line
12, 11, 10, 9
Carry it on your back
Hold it before your eyes
Breathe it in
And then say goodbye
You tore
You tore off all the wrapping and you didn't read the card
Tomorrow was a blessing and a gift
Not a guarantee not a new car
We left today breathing its last breath
Somewhere back down the line
This is the beginning of the end
Of the beginning of the end
Beginning of the end
Carry it on your back
Hold it before your eyes
Breathe it in
And then say goodbye
Say goodbye
We're getting warmer, we're getting closer
Getting warmer, getting closer
But you know
Time will come
And make a fool out of you and me
Some other time could we?
