Best to leave before the crash
You'll be run off the road into the river, flowers splashed
As the crowds arrive fashionably late
To turn the key, turn the page, they won't wait
You've gone to nowhere all alone
Like a lonely verse without its song
When the crowds arrive and lines were long
They turn the key, turn the page till you're gone
Now it's setting in
One or the other
Was it me or the time?
Did I hold you too tight?
And run it into the ground
Hurt is late and repressed
Did our love see the death?
It's best to leave before the crash
You'll be run off the road into the river, flowers splashed
As the crowds arrive to find what's wrong
To turn the key, turn the page without a sound
I can see where I don't belong
A lonely verse without its song
It's one or the other
It was me or the time
Did I hold you too tight?
And run it into the ground
See where I don't belong
A lonely verse without its song
Hurt is late and repressed
Did our love see the death?
