You wore a smile to the masquerade
And you blended into the crowd
You wear a mask on work days
So your boss can remember who you are
You bring a flask to church on Sunday
Take a sip when the devil feels near
You curse God for not giving you hands
To cover your eyes, mouth and ears

Do you regret the nights that we stayed awake?
And what did you gain from the risk you refused to take?

You have a history of preventing the future
And I have a habit of forgetting the past
And we've been circling around this town
Like red fingernails around a champagne glass

Do you regret the nights that we stayed awake?
And what did you gain from the risks you refused to take?

[Chorus x12]
Life is long but it feels short
When you go to bed and go to work

Life is long but it feels short
When you end up right back where you were
