Well I set myself a bedtime this time with a notion
That you try your best then
Everyone wins
But nothing ever goes that smoothly
And it won't end like a movie
Where the good guy always wins
Unitl you figure out
A way that you can live without
Stories with happy ends
Everybody I know is trying to get by
Fighting all the half-true lies
Nobody can win
They fill you up with expectations, innovations and predictions
That can't possibly fly
Cinderella's waiting tables
And the princess never did wake up
That's how it begins
Until you figure out
A way that you can live without
Stories with happy ends
Well everybody I know is trying to get by
Fighting all the half-true lies
Nobody can win
Nobody can win
Nobody can win
