The only way back is forward
The only way out is in
And I'm for short, I'm for short
I'm for short suffering

You know sometimes you can't lose
And then sometimes you just can't win
And I'm for short, I'm for short
I'm for short suffering

You know sometimes if we could just down
You and me and talk about it
And I'd listen to your side
And you'd listen to mine without shouting

I want to work it out
I don't want to scream and shout

Don't ever let me go
I don't care where you're been
And I'm for short, I'm for short
I'm for short suffering

Every night on the TV
I see the entire world has turned to choas
I look inside my own heart
And when I fight I ask "What are the payoffs?"

We've got to work it out
Or THESE ARE THE LAST DAYS! I shout

The only way back is forward
The only way out is in
And I'm for short, I'm for short
I'm for short suffering
