down on the other side of things   the triggers fast and light   bringing home this emptiness   for which you had to fight   it doesn't matter if you're giving   for they do not compromise   the world will keep you guessing   until the day you die      and everyone will say "I told you so"   yeah they'll all just nod and sigh   but I'll make a run at something real   and they'll never even try   and everyone will say "I told you so"   yeah they'll all just nod and sigh   as I go down in a ball of flames   they'll just watch, i wonder why      When the people downtown are freezing   sometimes you cannot hide   so what can you do its often true   then we shift away our eyes   but maybe that moments ours to live   and maybe that's what we were for   as fate will share a chance with you   to open up your door      and everyone will say "I told you so"   yeah they'll all just nod and sigh   but I'll make a run at something real   and they'll never even try   and everyone will say "I told you so"   yeah they'll all just nod and sigh   as I go down in a ball of flames   they'll just watch, i wonder why      I don't understand   why you're just standing there   I don't understand   why you don't seem to care
