Back then there was one, now that there is none
You can't sink lower down
Mountains don't just fall 
Because you want it all

Put that all to bed, paradise in your head
Ain't as good in the flesh 
And if you got your turn
You probably would have run out, run out

You can't change what's happened when it happens to you
Be careful what you wish for 'cause it just might come true
Can't you see, you and me, we just kill ourselves sometimes

Since the beginning, we've been murdering
The killing kind never miss
Shoot one down again 
When the world waltzes in

You can't change what’'s happened when it happens to you
Be careful what you wish for 'cause it just might come true
Can't you see, you and me, we just kill ourselves sometimes

Where there's happiness accidents can happen
There ain't nothing that you can do about
Cross your fingers and hope that someone else's luck has run out

You can't change what’s happened when it happens to you
Be careful what you wish for 'cause it just might come true
Can't you see, you and me, we just kill ourselves sometimes
