I turned on the radio
And heard a man say
I left home one morning
And ran far away
Never made it to work
On the 8.30 train
Just kept going south
To start over again
You can’t win, you can’t lose
When there’s nothing left to choose
Know what’s right, know what’s wrong
But still don’t belong
Nothing lost, nothing gained
Things will never be the same
Better take up the chance to quietly slip away
We spin around in endless circles
One day we’ll stop and hit the ground
We spent all our love
And fell out of time
Building our dream home
On the wrong side of town
Never wanted for much
Just a place in the sun
I sent you a letter
Didn’t say where I’d gone
You can’t win, you can’t lose
When there’s nothing left to choose
Know what’s right, know what’s wrong
But still don’t belong
Nothing lost, nothing gained
Things will never be the same
Better take up the chance to quickly slip away
We spin around in endless circles
One day we’ll stop and hit the ground
We spin around in endless circles
Searching for life we never find
