It's not over at all, you're just trying to smile
I know perfectly well
Such are things we both know, and we think we should say
Just to organize the stains

Systems reveal their construction these days
As we escape to drift further away
We know the stars go out one night
But I can't tell you anything you wouldn't know, so nothing has been lost

It's not over at all, if my thoughts could be here
They'd advice you to leave
And it's not easy, I know, making hard things look small
But we're dying to try

You have revealed your conclusion by chance
I have replaced you at little expense
We know the stars go out one night
But I can't think of anything I haven't told, so nothing has been lost

When you could use the words reserved
For a sad song
You'll find you've spent them up on God and anyone
Like anyone before

It's not over at all
You're just trying to smile, I know perfectly well
It's not over, but oh, my thoughts could be here
They'd advice you to leave

We will be cold where the lights are all out
At least we can think without reason or doubt
I don't know much about this world
But I can tell you one thing as I pass you by, oh, nothing has been lost
