I’ve driven around in circles for three hours,
It was bound to happen that night,
And I’ve passed that choice.
I’ve temporally forgot that there’s better days to come,
I thought I’d give it just one more chance.
Cuz I want tonight,
What I’ve been waiting for,
But I’ve found tonight,
What I’ve been worrying about.
You think you are complicated,
Deep mystery to all,
Well it’s taken me a while to see,
You’re not so special.
No energy, no meaning,
With a lot of words,
So pay for everything, now you’re feeling,
Could knock you down.
And I’ve seen tonight,
What I’ve been worrying about,
I’m gonna leave tonight,
Before I change my mind.
So see you when you’re forty,
Lost and all alone,
Being comforted by strangers,
They’ll never need to know,
Not sad because you lost me,
But sad because you thought it was cool,
To be sad.
You think misery will make you
stand out from the crowd.
If you had walked past me today,
I wouldn’t have picked you out,
I wouldn’t have picked you out,
Wouldn’t have picked you out.
Now I’ve seen tonight,
How could I waste my time?
And I’ll be on my way,
And I won’t be back,
Cuz I’ve seen tonight,
What I’ve been worrying about,
You’re just a boy, not a man.
And I’m not coming back,
And I’m not coming back,
And I’m not coming back
