Look at them all cautious now
 Every one a wallflower stone
 You & I we're dangerous
 Coveted unknowns
 But take them by the eyes like this
 And make them understand
 "I'm here for you & only you"
 Darling till I pass
 There's nothing to be said for waiting
 There's nothing to be said for standing proud
 There's nothing to be said for watching what has passed
 Cause none of this will last
 Look at them all twisted now
 I'm nesting in their skulls
 Gather this around us now'
 And pull & turn & shift
 Wrap them thick around us
 To keep us from ourselves
 Get Gordian & Labyrinth-like
 Never let them cut them out
 There's nothing to be said for growing up
 There's nothing to be said for standing still
 There's nothing to be said for waiting till you're asked
 Cause none of this will last
 Work the room & shine & cover them in lies
 Let them see the prize
 There's something to be said for taking what is mine
 Cause none of this can last
 ♪
 Look at them all quiet now
 They feast on what they're fed
 None of them are sated yet
 But you know they'll learn to live with what they get
 Sure God will get their souls
 And some spouse will get their flesh
 But eyes & flare & flash & fire
 Yeah, the dreamers get the best
 There's something to be said for shutting up
 There's something to be said for diving deep
 There's something to be said for going very fast
 Cause none of this can last
 There's something to be said for shutting up
 There's something to be said for diving deep
 There's something to be said for going very fast
 Cause none of this can last
