You walk away with a golden smile   And now you wait for another time   And now you're asking me to answer to   Do you have to be a friend to me?      And so you go with a daze in your eyes   But you don't know where you're going tonight   You're always running away from your pain   It doesn't have to be this way      And these things happen all the time   You're always the same, you never have time for it   You're not alone, but you're not alive   This isn't your way, you'll have it someday again      You seem to be one to know it's a touch   You'd let it go but it hurts too much   And now you're asking me to answer to   Do you have to be this way to me?      And once again it is much too hard to do it   But all you want is to get, get, get, get it   You always find what you want is the very thing   That makes you feel this way      And these things happen all the time   You're always the same, you never have time for it   You're not alone, but you're not alive   This isn't your way, you'll have it someday again      And, oh, it's good to know   That now's the time to live   And if you try to understand   That I can take this pain away      I can make you new again   I could love your wasted life   And I would love to make you mine   And it's time to realize      And these things happen all the time   You're always the same, you never have time for it   You're not alone, but you're not alive   This isn't your way, you'll have it someday again      You've been wasting all this time again   And you've been wasting all this time again   And you've been wasting all this time   You've been wasting all of this time again
