You are the temporary void in my life

you know what you don't want I know what you don't like

We're together so conviently

you take what you don't have

I take what you don't need



THIS IS A RACE TO THE END

IT STARTED ON A HILL AND ENDS ON A MOUNTAIN

AND WHEN THIS GAME WINDS DOWN

I OFTEN WONDER WHETHER WE'LL BE MORE THAN FRIENDS



Neck and neck I think I'm slightly ahead

You're keepin' score and I'll use it against you

Keepin' time with all the words that were said

skip a step and I'll be slightly behind you



THIS IS A RACE TO THE END

IT STARTED ON A HILL AND ENDS ON A MOUNTAIN

AND WHEN THIS GAME WINDS DOWN

I OFTEN WONDER WHETHER WE'LL BE MORE THAN FRIENDS



The is a likely story

this a secret affair

this is a part of what we need to stay in this game



I guess the question is how much can you take

I've got the time and the motivation

Soon enough there'll be a lot more at stake

who's gonna be the first to fall to pieces



THIS IS A RACE TO THE END

IT STARTED ON A HILL AND ENDS ON A MOUNTAIN

AND WHEN THIS GAME WINDS DOWN

I OFTEN WONDER WHETHER WE'LL BE MORE THAN FRIENDS
