Bad News
The fear of breaking the promise of a white-winged dove
To carry us out alive
And home safe and sound for the news at five
And all because
Maybe I'm not who I thought I was
I begged and borrowed and stole
Just to keep some hope on the payroll
Brace yourself baby
I've got bad news
I traded all our luck for some rhythm and blues
And we're racing to the end
Where it's already fallen apart
'Cuz I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
A better place to start
Pictures hanging up on your walls framed so nice
I saw one of them in a dream
I was lookin at me but through your eyes
I'm still lost
Trying just to get this wrong point across
Maybe you can fill me
with some new and improved way to believe
Brace yourself baby
I've got bad news
I traded all our luck for some rhythm and blues
And we're racing to the end
Where it's already fallen apart
'Cuz I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
A better place to start
You better take me home
Don't let me drink alone
Don't want to be the sad
Ending you shouldn't have had
Light this dynamite
It's got a short fuse
I gambled with the devil
for my unpaid dues
Brace yourself baby
I've got bad news
I traded all our luck for some rhythm and blues
And we're racing to the end
Where it's already fallen apart
'Cuz I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
A better place to start
To carry us out alive
And home safe and sound for the news at five
And all because
Maybe I'm not who I thought I was
I begged and borrowed and stole
Just to keep some hope on the payroll
Brace yourself baby
I've got bad news
I traded all our luck for some rhythm and blues
And we're racing to the end
Where it's already fallen apart
'Cuz I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
A better place to start
Pictures hanging up on your walls framed so nice
I saw one of them in a dream
I was lookin at me but through your eyes
I'm still lost
Trying just to get this wrong point across
Maybe you can fill me
with some new and improved way to believe
Brace yourself baby
I've got bad news
I traded all our luck for some rhythm and blues
And we're racing to the end
Where it's already fallen apart
'Cuz I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
A better place to start
You better take me home
Don't let me drink alone
Don't want to be the sad
Ending you shouldn't have had
Light this dynamite
It's got a short fuse
I gambled with the devil
for my unpaid dues
Brace yourself baby
I've got bad news
I traded all our luck for some rhythm and blues
And we're racing to the end
Where it's already fallen apart
'Cuz I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
A better place to start
