lyrics

You have a number, a place in line
An undercover thought of mine
Everyday
You've been a stranger, a book that I read
A million words I can't forget

Can't say I ever heard,
"You're going to have to pay for tomorrow, today"

You'll lose some twinkle, as I age
But you know we had some good days
That follow you
You'll crack and crumble, and disappear
It'll be like I was never here

Can't say I ever heard,
"You're going to have to pay for tomorrow, today"

Sometimes I get glimpses, verify my convictions
Pine for a familiar hand
But rarely do I bother to let time take me under
It's really been an honest friend

Can't say I ever heard,
"You're going to have to pay for tomorrow, today"
