lyrics

There's no use, you say you can help it
What next will you go begging on a street
I don't know, how you can keep going
When the ground you're standing on is trembling 'neath your feet

I pretend, because I can't face it
Who said the party's coming to an end
You noticed, you're worried
You say you can't help it
Now is a good time to say good-bye to your friends

But after everything you claim (after everything you claim)
You find the world's about the same as ever
After everything's renamed (after everything's renamed)
You find the problem's just the same as last time

Can't get away
I've been there
Can't get away
Is there anywhere else but here
Can there be anywhere else but here

Too bad, I know you don't like it
Nobody made you hero of the day
Oh well you'll have to get past it
Who wanted to be in your fan club anyway

I pretend, because I can't face it
Who said the party's coming to an end
You noticed, you're worried
You say you can't help it
Optimist is lending to the pessimist again

But after everything you claim (after everything you claim)
You find the world's about the same as ever
After everything's renamed (after everything's renamed)
You find the problem's just the same as last time

Can't get away
I've been there
Can't get away
Is there anywhere else but here
Can there be anywhere else but here

There's no use, you say you can take it
What next will you go begging in the street
I don't know, how you can keep going
When the ground you're standing on is trembling 'neath your feet

Can't get away
I've been there
Can't get away
Is there anywhere else but here
Can there be anywhere else but here
Can there be anywhere else, anywhere else
Anywhere else, anywhere else, anywhere else, anywhere else
Can there be anywhere else but here
Can there be anywhere else but here
