"So long"

I can't go on like this, let it be over.
That's not the picture that you painted.
You've seen a better life, but sirens come tonight
And soon you're burning out and faded.
The endless chattering conceals many things,
But isn't worth the price of chaos.
I hear a voice laughing, they watch us staggering
And only you and I to pay up.
When all is said and done you are the only one
Who can make tomorrow painless.
A future promising to bring you better things
May only leave you broke and shameless.
If I could live my life in peace and happiness, baby
Then we could be the way we hoped and thought it would be.
Or so long some say, so long, so long till I see you,
I'll see you.
So many times before you dared the devil.
Your luck is running out and wasted.
Too much intensity can be your enemy
You think your power's overrated.
You'll never know of pain or pity just the same.
You only seem to know the way up.
And still the voice laughing, they watch us staggering
So now it's time for us to pay up.
When all is said and done you are the only one
Who can make tomorrow painless.
A future promising to bring you better things
May only leave you broke and shameless.
If I could live my life in peace and happiness, baby
Then we could be the way we hoped and thought it would be.
Or so long some say, so long, so long till I see you.
If I could live my life in peace and happiness, baby
Then we could be the way we hoped and thought it would be.
Or so long some say, so long, so long till I see you...

If I could live my life in peace and happiness, baby
Then we could be the way we hoped and thought it would be.
Or so long some say, so long, so long till I see you,
If I could live my life in peace and happiness, baby
Then we could be the way we hoped and thought it would be.
Or so long some say, so long, so long till I see you,
I'll see you. I'll see you.
