Another bad day, waste of promise

Are we really getting near?

Kick off your work shoes, rest a little

There's nothing for you to prove



Is it funny or is it sad?

We leave and enter on our own

Is it funny or is it sad?

We never really know anyone



I'm telling you my only secret

I'm so lonely, she said

I'm waiting for a hero to save the day

A heaviness so relentless

An emptiness so monumental

I'm waiting for a hero to save the day



Across the sea I can hear you're tired

What is there left to see?



A smash of keyboard into their faces

A silence so satisfying

I can understand why you left your home

I can understand



I'm telling you...



'Cause we're twenty, twenty, twenty-two

Bleeding stars, stars and happy thoughts

'Cause we're twenty, twenty, twenty-two

Waiting for the rain, the rain to stop



'Cause I'm a boy and you're a girl

And what else is there in this world?

I can make you smile, I can make you laugh

What else is there in this world?



So take my hand and marry me

I'll make your branches sprout a-green

I can make you smile, I can make you laugh

What else is there in this world?



And if you take my hand

I'll lead you to the promised land

Just call in sick

Our time is now

I've got so much love to give

A vessel to receive it

Take the day off work

Our time is now, our time is now
