The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Let's pretend that we'll be here tomorrow

And I'll try for you to be a little more on time

I know you need to say you know you've let me down

But you haven't and it's hard to talk

with people all around

Please don't say how proud you are

Lets do the things we normally do

I'll say see you later

You'll sing a line or two

From your rebel songs sung out of tune

Don't hold my hand for longer

than you need to

Lets forget that we're here

and make some plans

We'll go for walks

Sit on the bench we always sat

I'll tell you

every little detail of my day

and so will you

Don't try to stay awake

I'm feeling tired too

This is just another day

Let's do the things we normally do

I'll say see you later you'll sing a line or two

From your rebel songs sung out of tune

Don't hold my hand for longer than you need to

Armored cars and tanks and guns

came to take away our sons

And everybody's stood behind

The man behind the wire

There's a fight to love

A fight to have

Your bed's a battlefield and back

And all of this will just be stripped away

Let's do the things we normally do

I'll say see you later you'll sing a line or two

From your rebel songs sung out of tune

Don't hold my hand for longer than you need to

Don't look me in the eye more than you need to

Don't try to say goodbye if I don't want to

Don't say how proud you are

And say "I'm far away"

and take along your late

and say a word

and I can say "I'm fade away"

and later

we're so ok

alone

and stay

cold

and say "i'm fine"

and there

alone you are

alone

and say "you're fine"

Ooh

And say ok

Ooh

and stay ok

Ooh

alone you stay

aloooneee
