I used to think of happiness as something you could buy On the rocks or with a tonic, for a reasonable price I've since seen my reflection in a dozen broken mirrors But I've got this sneaky feeling that my bad luck's just run dry As we drove down unknown roads, the clock ticked away from midnight Stopped and sat beneath the moon, no synthetic light in sight The emptiness of the universe made us question who we are B't'you filled it up with meaning, and you left me seeing stars We'll take on the world, just you and me Rewrite this clichéd script somehow I've skipped to the end and the pages were blank But that's because we are the narrators now I was getting drunk on spirits and writing serenades To fabricated damsels that I hoped to someday save But whatever inspirations I had drawn on, I'd still wake up With a shit song, and hungover all the same But you turned up out of nowhere, and you taught me how to feel Not the love of lustful teens, but something tangible and real And all the cheesy songs that I was once dead set against Started moving me to tears, because they suddenly made sense We'll take on the world, just you and me Rewrite this clichéd script somehow I've skipped to the end and the pages were blank But that's because we are the narrators now No longer beholden to dreams that aren't ours Not pawns on a chessboard, not crossed by the stars We'll take on the world, just you and me Because we are the narrators now We'll take on the world, just you and me Rewrite this clichéd script somehow I've skipped to the end and the pages were blank But that's because we are the narrators now No longer beholden to dreams that aren't ours Not pawns on a chessboard, not crossed by the stars We'll take on the world, just you and me Because we are the narrators now We'll take on the world, just you and me Rewrite this clichéd script somehow I've skipped to the end and the pages were blank But that's because we are the narrators now No longer beholden to dreams that aren't ours Not pawns on a chessboard, not crossed by the stars We'll take on the world, just you and me Because we are the narrators now
