A cold night wasn't trouble enough for him
Another swallow never seemed to like enough for him
They say "the past is the past"
But it never treated me like this (Tread me like this)

He couldn't ask for a better understanding of how
What goes around comes back around twice as fast
He's got no hope for a cure
So for put himself to sleep, oh

Now we just sit back, we sit back
While we watch all of them react

So tell me what to tell you when the world won't listen
The start to the finish
Come on and let me hear it speak
Out and use up all the time your given
The start to the finish
Come on let me hear it, go on
Go ahead and tell your story

She always hoped for him to take her word for word
Never knew what it felt like feeling this unsure
She's got her eyes on the time
But there's no use waiting there for him (Waiting there for him)
She's not
In the world alone but she wanted
To put herself to sleep

So tell me what to tell you when the world won't listen
The start to the finish
Come on and let me hear it speak
Out and use up all the time your given
The start to the finish
Come on let me hear it, go on
Go ahead and tell your stories
Your stories, your stories
Oh

And now we just sit back, we sit back
While we watch all of them react

So tell me what to tell you when the world won't listen
The start to the finish
Come on and let me hear it speak
Out and use up all the time your given
The start to the finish
Come on let me hear it

Tell me what to tell you when the world won't listen
The start to the finish
Come on and let me hear it
You got to speak out and use up all the time your given
Yeah
It's time to come on
Go ahead and tell your story
