The fire is gone
but the ashes are hot
and with burnt feet
we still creep
in a circle. I see the twitching
on your lips when
you say you're sorry
Did you think the
end justifies your
mediocrity
You're out of time, out of time
You're out of time, out of time
Only make me lose the beat
Don't sing any songs for me
Your songs are tasteless
You're out of time, out of time
Only make me lose the beat
Don't say what you think
if you think
It wasn't all bad
We've done justice to everyone
Except me, except me
It wasn't all bad
And after a fashion
though – I'm beside myself
I'm beside myself
It wasn't all good,
even if everyone pretends
even if everyone withholds
that now nothing remains for me
Besides me, I'm beside myself
You're grinning when you win
and you always spin the same
threads, but if you have nothing
more to say, you needn't
talk any longer
You lie to me silently
You amuse yourself aloud
The way you become entangled
your trick is seen through
quickly
You're out of time, out of time
You're out of time, out of time
Only make me lose the beat
Don't paint any pictures for me
Your pictures are tasteless
You're out of time, out of time
Only make me lose the beat
Don't say what you think
if you think
It wasn't all bad
We've done justice to everyone
Except me, except me
It wasn't all bad
And after a fashion
though – I'm beside myself
I'm beside myself
It wasn't all good,
even if everyone pretends
even if everyone withholds
that now nothing remains for me
Besides me, I'm beside myself
Nooooooo
Don't sing any songs
Nooooooo
Don't paint any pictures
Nooooooo
Who's throwing the first stone?
Who's throwing the first
Nooooooo
?
Who's throwing the first stone?
Nooooooo
It wasn't all bad
We've done justice to everyone
Except me, except me
It wasn't all bad
We've done justice to everyone
Except me, except me
It wasn't all bad
We've done justice to everyone
Except me, except me
It wasn't all bad
And after a fashion
though – I'm beside myself
I'm beside myself
It wasn't all good,
even if everyone pretends
even if everyone withholds
that now nothing remains for me
Besides me, I'm beside myself
Nooooooo
It wasn't all bad
It wasn't all bad
Don't sing any songs
Nooooooo
It wasn't all bad
It wasn't all bad
Don't paint any pictures
Nooooooo
Who's throwing the first stone?
Who's throwing the first stone?
Nooooooo
It wasn't all bad.
