Hope became hopeless
As the blind lead the blind
We all felt so alive
Around killing time
We all stopped smiling
As they bought an end to the fun
The daily grind and 9 to 5
Eclisped the sun
The light at the end of the tunnel
Burned out years ago
When the average pace of life
Became so painfully slow
Hold on tight
While we say goodnight
To the world as we know it
The revellers were kicked out the door
Every ounce of joy was stamped into the floor
Parade wagons ground to a halt
As she made sure I knew this was my fault
The light at the end of the tunnel
Burned out years ago
When the average pace of life
Became so painfully slow
Hold on tight
While we say goodnight
To the world as we know it
The light at the end of the tunnel
Burned out years ago
When you left me
Life ground to a halt
Hold on tight when we say goodnight
To the world as we know it
