Get Used to the Sound

when the papers say
 nothing ever happens here
 and your brand new friend
 has really helped you disappear
 well, oh, you said nothing's over 'til it's over
 it's something we mutually agreed upon
 so if you're gonna say it out loud
 I'll just get used to the sound
 and pass the time
 pretending that you'll come around
 in the seaside town
 that they forgot to bomb down
 and, oh, you said nothing's over 'til it's over
 that's something I used to be afraid of
 and if you're gonna say it out loud
 I'll just get used to the sound
 don't ask me if there's gonna be a next time
 don't ask me at all
 don't ask the stars for anything but ancient light
 don't ask them at all
 you said nothing's over but it's over
 and that's something we used to be afraid of
 so can we say the words out loud
 we used to be afraid of
 used to be afraid of
 used to be afraid of
 don't ask me
 don't ask me
