I went on holiday
Where I slept in half the day
And dreamt I was awake
In a world uncracked and safe at home

We wait at home through hot wars and cold
To say that isn’t so is a lie of degrees

And when we’re satisfied we write, “The End.”
When we’re unsatisfied we write, “The End.”
But there’s no end. Yeah, there’s no end.

I wrote about the day
I ran in the human race
And beat out show and place
To be awarded our unwasted love

We wait at home through hot wars and cold
To say that isn’t so is a lie of degrees

And when we’re satisfied we write, “The End.”
When we’re unsatisfied we write, “The End.”
But there’s no end. Yeah, there’s no end.
