Prescriptions won't help you see better
For your life is just a blur
Anyway...you should have seen it coming
Tonight again you're likely to stay in
It's not even bad weather that scares you anymore
...am I right?
Now you're buying some airline tickets
But you don't really know where to fly
Remember you used to tell everybody
How you just loved this city
Say... What happened to that?
Now it's just like that song about cacti
All along that same old loop...
From your job to your place
From your place to some club where it might end up in a fight
Seems you're burning that candle at both ends
But the flames are nowhere to be seen
And you're buying some airline tickets
But you don't really know where to fly
Yeah...you're buying those airline tickets
And you might, yeah you might
Say, you might, you might as well...
...learn how to... swim
You know, you're not that far
From being king of the c**-de-sac
But you'd rather believe that you'll move on...
Am I right?
So move on!
Fill that old suitcase and then...
Then move on...go ahead!
Kiss that fat old landlord goodbye
And then...just move on...
Fly away! (now...)
Spend your credit on those tickets
If it saves your soul
For your life is just a blur
Anyway...you should have seen it coming
Tonight again you're likely to stay in
It's not even bad weather that scares you anymore
