Last night you yelled hellfire as you slammed the door
This morning I find you sleeping on the floor
My throat is dry and my head is feeling sore
And all I know is I don't want this any more
But when I say it's time to go
You shake your head and just say no
You say you're amazed that I don't know
That this is, this is
The way we live
The way we live,
The way we live
The way we live
Last night I slept alone in my cold, cold bed
This morning I find you sleeping in my head
Want to get away but the lights are stuck on red
Trying to forget all the things you said
But when I say it's time to go
You shake your head and just say no
You say you're amazed that I don't know
That this is, this is
The way we live
The way we live,
The way we live
The way we live
Cast your mind back, remember what you used to say
Make the most of each and every day
Besides, it's hard to walk when your feet are made of clay
And it feels like such a waste to throw it all away
So when you say it's time to go
I shake my head and just say no
'Cos deep down you and I both know
That this is, this is
The way we live
The way we live,
The way we live
The way we live
