Over Again

It started with act one
The curtain came up
It's pretty old fashioned
To people fall in love
And everything's perfect
But one thing I've learned is
It probably won't stay
That way for long

Why can't we work out
Hiding some lesion
So we can stay frozen
In this position?
Why can't we rip out
The last couple pages
And stay the way that it is?

No, I wouldn't like to know how this one ends
Been running away from it since we began
Why can't you lie and say it's not happening?
Why can't we start over again?

The story continues
The lovers' hearts pound
The news, they spread quickly
All over town
Now come with the horses
Now come with the hounds
And tear them apart
Just to stop the sound

Why can't we work out
Before the break up
So we can stay dreaming
And never wake up?
Why can't we rip out
The last couple pages
And stay the way that it is?

No, I wouldn't like to know how this one ends
Been running away from it since we began
Why can't you lie and say it's not happening?
Why can't we start over again?
Over again
Over again
Why can't we start over again?

No, I wouldn't like to know how this one ends
Been running away from it since we began
Why can't you lie and say it's not happening?
Why can't we start over again?

It started with act one
The curtain came up
It's pretty old fashioned
To people fall in love
And I thought we were perfect
But one thing I'm learning
We probably won't stay
That way for long
