lyrics

we're out of time
and out of money
what made me think this was
the land of milk and honey
it's time to go
and no more dreaming
walk in the rain under streetlight
pavement gleaming

I'm kind of blue
but I'll be okay
I wasn't looking for a
fairy tale anyway
"hello my name is Happy,
let me sing to you
and maybe we can be friends?"

the peace and laughter
came to such a savage end

but that's alright
that's alright

it's alright
it's not for her
she was taken with
a strong disinclination
she's in your head
you wrote her resume
she's gonna find herself
another occupation

take out a loan
enrol in classes

you're working nights
and now you can't afford
new glasses

"maybe together
we can break it down,
and build something new"

a flash of colour and she's gone
the one you hoped to pursue
you'll never know if all you had to say
was 'I love you'

I love you too
but that's alright

[instrumental]

and when you're done
they say you're pretty
you've got another small
apartment in the city

it's only words
no real story
no eucatastrophe
and no hidden allegory

go for a walk
no destination
stay off the train
there'll be no one at the station

"I'm gonna see you on the other side
I'm counting on you today"

and fearless promises
will only fade away
but that's alright

that's alright
