She knew she'd break his heart
She just wanted to go quietly
Like it was written in the stars
But it all comes out eventually
No matter how hard you resist
That might be a harsh reality
But that's the only kind there is
It's not the whisper in your ear

It's not the banging of the drum
It's not the person that you were
It's not the person you become
It's not where you're headed to
And it's not where you're coming from
The only life you're gonna
Out between the zero and the
Out between the zero and the
