Smokestacks
Better pack your bags and run
Repeating offenses you hide with a smile
Things I wish you hadn't done
Look around this is
The last bit of peace for a while
Because the world don't owe you anything
I'm not waiting here
For the person that you have become
And the world don't owe you anything
But you keep on rolling the dice
And you keep on smiling
As we fall away one by one
Rise and shine
Broken hearts and dirty smokestacks
Walking circles round this place
You'll be fine
Always knew you don't belong here
Turn the lights off just in case
I hope you'll be gone without a trace
Because the world don't owe you anything
I'm not waiting here
For the person that you have become
And the world don't owe you anything
But you keep on rolling the dice
And you keep on smiling
As we fall away one by one
Oh yeah, this is long overdue
I'll cross my fingers for your breakdown
I tried to run the numbers for you
But you keep on rolling the dice
And you keep on smiling as we fall
Because the world don't owe you anything
I'm not waiting here
For the person that you have become
And the world don't owe you anything
But you keep on rolling the dice
And you keep on smiling
Repeating offenses you hide with a smile
Things I wish you hadn't done
Look around this is
The last bit of peace for a while
Because the world don't owe you anything
I'm not waiting here
For the person that you have become
And the world don't owe you anything
But you keep on rolling the dice
And you keep on smiling
As we fall away one by one
Rise and shine
Broken hearts and dirty smokestacks
Walking circles round this place
You'll be fine
Always knew you don't belong here
Turn the lights off just in case
I hope you'll be gone without a trace
Because the world don't owe you anything
I'm not waiting here
For the person that you have become
And the world don't owe you anything
But you keep on rolling the dice
And you keep on smiling
As we fall away one by one
Oh yeah, this is long overdue
I'll cross my fingers for your breakdown
I tried to run the numbers for you
But you keep on rolling the dice
And you keep on smiling as we fall
Because the world don't owe you anything
I'm not waiting here
For the person that you have become
And the world don't owe you anything
But you keep on rolling the dice
And you keep on smiling
