Nights are drifting endlessly
Sleep keeps evading me
And I'm hanging by a thread

As we go down
You wear a crown
You wonder why I leave you to drown
As we grow old
As our lives unfold
We realise we're a story untold

I've rammed a stick through your heart
And this is only the start
Oh my God we've grown apart
The world is turning relentlessly
Time's no comfort to me
We're sinking into bland obscurity

As we go down
You wear a crown
You wonder why I leave you to drown
As we grow old
As our lives unfold
We realise we're a story untold

Nights are drifting endlessly
Sleep keeps evading me
Insomnia's my long lost friend
The world is turning relentlessly
Time's no comfort to me
We're sinking into bland obscurity

As we go down
You wear a crown
And you wonder why I leave you to drown
As we grow old
As our lives unfold
We realise we're a story untold

And you wonder why I leave you to drown
As we grow old
As our lives unfold
We realise we're a story untold
