todays been a career day,
futures made and fortunes lost
as im standing in the lobby,
im waiting for the elevator to take me away
up to nine or ten,
maybe eleven the
sound of sirens fading as she whispers in
my ear

shes saying, its too late to wish success
so get undressed and please just come to bed
cause im the last real thing youve got
youre cursed by
all ambitious thoughts is that all youve got

as for you, you spin a story like a spider spins a web
see thats a metaphor, no wait,
a similie im still learning but i think im getting better oh if
im not tortured how are you ever going to relate

ive been condemed by those i love,
wishing me the worst as im trying my best
but shes the last real thing ive got
im cursed by all ambitious thoughts
is that all youve got
love close your eyes
and cover, cover your ears,
for the end is near but the beginning is here

in with the outro and out with the old [4x]

i'm gonna tie all the loose ends i once pulled
in with the outro and out with the old,

preparing for failure, from what we've been told
in with the outro and out with the old

with nothing to offer, so nothings been sold
in with the outro and out with the old

forgive me and give me one more chance to fold
in with the outro and out with the old

there's nothing to lose when there's nothing to hold we'll be together in the morning
