We're out of time 
And out of money 
What made me think this was 
The land of milk and honey 
It's time to go 
And no more dreaming 
Walk in the rain under streetlight 
Pavement gleaming 

I'm kind of blue 
But I'll be okay 
I wasn't looking for a 
Fairy tale anyway 
"Hello my name is Happy, 
Let me sing to you 
And maybe we can be friends?" 

The peace and laughter 
Came to such a savage end 

But that's alright 
That's alright 

It's alright 
It's not for her 
She was taken with 
strong disinclination 
She's in your head 
You wrote her resume 
She's gonna find herself 
Another occupation 

Take out a loan 
Enrol in classes 

You're working nights 
And now you can't afford 
New glasses 

"Maybe together 
We can break it down, 
And build something new" 

flash of colour and she's gone 
The one you hoped to pursue 
You'll never know if all you had to say 
Was 'I love you' 

I love you too 
But that's alright 
 [bad word]  

And when you're done 
They say you're pretty 
You've got another small 
Apartment in the city 

It's only words 
No real story 
No eucatastrophe 
And no hidden allegory 

Go for a walk 
No destination 
Stay off the train 
There'll be no one at the station 

"I'm gonna see you on the other side 
I'm counting on you today" 

And fearless promises 
Will only fade away 
Nut that's alright 
That's alright
