Let me tell a story ’bout a guy I had to know
He had the knack for kind of freaking me out
He’s battered and he’s bruised but he won’t show up in the news
He’s on a mission to find what life’s all about
He’s on a roll
It takes a toll
He never asked for more than what he sends
He’s waking up
He’ll make the cut
He hasn’t figured out to have more than he lends
Let me tell a story ’bout the injure and the glory
Got her rolling in her struck down head
She’s out for gore and something more
‘Til someone walks in past the door
Raise a glass to a star-crossed them
We’re up and out
We’re something else
We’re better off together than we’re dead
We’re on the loose
We’re off the goose
It’s such a tragedy that we met
Closing off our lovers’ tale
Where some would win and others fail
We knew where it would go to the end
This one trails and stops a bit
It’s got me thinking “Never quit”
I’m off to find a heart to pretend
And I know it’s just a problem we can change if we could try
But we just while about our love and watch each other pass us by
‘Cause at the start of rose and ribbon, there’s a future in your eye
And I might
And I might
