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 I 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 ya, I'll see ya       So many times before you dared the Devil    Your luck is running out and wasted    Too much intensity can be your enemy    You think the powers' 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 I 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 ya      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 ya      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 ya      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 ya, I'll see ya, I'll see ya
