Will they write me down as the good guy?
Who will stop me if I don't comply?
How'd you get that look in your eye?
It's blinding, I'm trying
Just know it's you and me, always
In the end, in the end, in the end, in the end, in the end
If you run from the gun, will the bullets find you?
If you hide from the sun, will the lights remind you?
If I take what I get, I'll be stuck here waiting all my life
Never been automatic, so why can't I forget it tonight?
