lyrics

Old friends
quietly waiting for the
world to end
Keeping our distance
taking our time
making predictions
within a margin of error we cannot hide

Me and my friends
we get together every
now and then
Telling stories
drinking wine
trying to avoid
the one thing that's always on our minds

How do I get started?
Where do I begin?
When all I've ever wanted
is to win the only game I'll never win
I thought I was waiting
for the day that I'd break through
but there are no real breakthroughs
just the things you say and the things that you do
Just the things you say and the things that you do

I've been
wondering if we've got one
chance in ten
of doing anything
worth remembering
or if our only hope is to
pack it all up and start again

How do I get started?
Where do I begin?
When all I've ever wanted
is to win the only game I'll never win
I thought I was waiting
for the day that I'd break through
but there are no real breakthroughs
just the things you say and the things that you do
Just the things you say and the things oh the
things that you say
and the things that you do
oh the things that you say and the things you do
