He lit it up, oh yeah and it burned nice
My Daddy said 'you want to see a match burn twice?'
He blew it out, then dabbed it on my shoulder once or twice
But I dare you to deny those were the times, those were the times
And I would dearly love to dream that I could return to that room
At ease upon green suites in a hazy sunlight afternoon
Watching TV in black and white, all cosy like a tomb
And if you tempted me to change the future, I could not choose
Chorus:
There's nothing here so terrible
And many things I wouldn't change
Save for a pain I will not rationalise
'cept for a truth I cannot tame
Verse 2
About my sisters electrocution we now fondly reminisce
But behind my laughter, a feeling I would not miss
If you could somehow nullify, and make my debt come good
Why document my actions when nothing's understood
I could not avert the time line, not at any rate
Sometimes the best of starts betrays a darker fate
Send word now to my mother that time's collapsing fast
No one here is winning, no one here laughs last
Repeat chorus
