Several upstarts from the other team
Encroaching on this season's dream of victory
Victory
It's a rematch from the year before
With zero-zero even score well live to me
Live to me
The ocean is big and blue
And even if I crossed it
I still wouldn't be far enough away from you
Left behind, record time
Leave tonight, leave tonight
It's a lesson I learned long ago
Of who to be and what to know
It's sad to say, since yesterday
With the countermeasures now in place
I light the fuse and hide my face in effigy
Burn in effigy
The first act comes to a close
And everyone gets up to leave
Because the ending is something we already know
Left behind, record time
Leave tonight, leave tonight
I can't see for the life of me
As the time ticks by, do we really leave the past behind?
Whistle's blown and the yellow card is thrown
What never will be known until tonight
With the countermeasures now in place
I light the fuse and hide my face in effigy
Burn in effigy
Sinking, like a battle-ridden ship upon the ocean
Sails have fallen, there'll be no more forward motion
