Christ, go easy on this one
Let her understand that you need to do the same
It's a long way out and a short one back
To the lonely places from which we came
First one in and the last one gone
He's calling it off like a nuclear testing man
I heard it down in the bar, it's the ballad of a failing man
From down in the big stars up to the high rise
They do it the same, they don't even give it a name
Hollowing head over heart on the heels of a ten-second kick
It's a prick in a stupid game
Kick it over like castles made out of sand
Gotta get it young, get it while you can
There's nothing left here at all but the ballad of a failing man
Get caught in a crush, it sees it too much
I want to get out of this little world
It seems the only place that I want to stay
Is in my dreams

Christ, go easy on this one
Let her understand that you need to do the same
It's a long way out and a short one back
To the lonely places from which we came
Kick it over like castles made out of sand
Gotta get it young, get it while you can
There's nothing left here at all but the ballad of a failing man
Until there's nothing left here at all but the ballad of a failing man
