You go so fast
Almost without a chance for me to say goodbye
It's long ago you stopped looking at
me in the eye as we walk side by side
How can it last
With such a deadbeat heart as mine could it last
Someone hiding his own sadness
Dancing the pain away all through the night
For a while I've been wondering, wondering back
To those times and those Fridays when you had to meet up
To the days when you wanted to be part of my life
Makes no sense now
Without you I struggle to get by
Why does it have to be about the bad guys
And those ones that, the reckless types yeah
Those who never bat an eyelid when they check you out
As they sip their Coca Cola, the ones who honk too loud
Don't you see their phony thoughtlessness
The way they'll laugh in the end
You'll have them all anytime
You're not into us
And that's why you go so fast
It's unjust
We're hardly getting to start
And I'd been hoping I could ask you out
To roller skate
To bowl til late
And bake a cake now
Say, who would die
Give up their life to kiss your lips one more time
Despite the fact you've got an arctic heart
And a neoromantic countenance
How can it last
With someone bound to lose it in every club
Someone so static on the one hand
And such a drama queen from time to time
For a while I've been letting you out of my mind
Started praying you'd sink in the sea and get lost
With the monster who'll soon take the place I once had
I don't love you
I don't think I'll love you more like that
And even though it has to be the bad guys
And the ones who that will break your heart yeah
Tonight I'm going out, try to get over it
Hide my memories of you where they can be well kept
Oh you're way out of my dreams but I have never felt this good
Tonight I'll dance among the bad guys
And I'll leave them hypnotized yeah
