Once I had a close friend, I knew him for quite a while
He seemed alright to me
We had this deal together, took all my money and time
And then he went away, taking all that was mine

Oh, well
Things [bad word] to an end
 [bad word]  we all die in the end
Die in the end, die in the end

Once it was fun to worry about who was in control
Could look into the future
But now things don't seem right, passion is filling the air
Profits are better than life and things are harder to bear, things are harder to bear

Oh, well
Things [bad word] to an end
 [bad word]  we all die in the end
Die in the end, die in the end, die in the end

It's a dead end
Dead end
Dead end
Dead end, dead end

Once I had a lover, I knew her for quite a while
She seemed alright to me
And then she was gone, she took my loving and time
Taking all that was mine and leaving me far behind, leaving me far behind

Oh, well
Things [bad word] to an end
 [bad word]  we all die in the end
Die in the end (x4)

It's a dead end
Dead end (x3)
