Participation Trophy - Close of Day Lyrics

I can see the street from my dining room table
There's a couple out walking their dog
And sharing a cigarette between them
Now there's a problem that I haven't got

And I wonder if they ever stop to think about the consequences
That next drag may have further down the line
But I'd do better to remember not everyone thinks the way I do
Most of the time

Perhaps this train of thought is purely pessimistic
But I've never felt a reason I should change
I'd rather see myself as realistic
It's not like it's never gonna rain

And the sun may be shining
But the light in your eyes will soon fade
And when my time has come will I make Dylan Thomas proud
Or just slip away?

So board up all the windows
The sky's looking grey
Maybe it's a blessing in disguise
You never liked the beach anyway

We'll spend the day inside
I know a place where we can hide
From anything the world could throw our way

And I might sound like a sucker
But the music's always been there for me
It's always been there for me
