All our heroes are dying And my friends are taking pills The way I'm denying The way I love you still And I'm crying Kicking doors down to let you in My brother got married And my sister settled down And I find scary the way I need you around You say you love me And that's good enough for now And since you know me Tell me why I can't let go Instead you hold me I'm caught inside your undertow And we play the game And we always played it well One hell of a story And it's my favourite one to tell It's six in the morning And you ask if it's alright If you lay beside me If it's only for the night I'm awake and dreaming In the glow of the light And since you know me Tell me why I can't let go Instead you hold me I'm caught inside your undertow And we play the game And we always played it well One hell of a story And it's my favourite one to tell All our heroes are dying And my friends are taking pills The way I'm denying The way I love you still
