Without any notice, all of a sudden then without warning, I’m Back where I began
Thought I’d got it right, not for the first time, but I’m not surprised
That nothing went according to plan. Was it wrong of me to believe
That this time it would be easy? I knew better to fall for that again
Such a sad sight indeed, something so unforseen, and I’m back where I began
I’m a quick start, foolish hearted, easy target, printed in my skin
They aren’t far behind but I don’t mind I always let them win
Two of a kind is you and I, you make it easier for me to take the easy way down
Beware of the quiet, it can be violent, sneak up in silence,
So suddenly, you’re all out of time. You think how and when, you let this begin
You realise and grin cos the worlds left you behind
I’m a quick start, foolish hearted, easy target, printed in my skin
They aren’t far behind but I don’t mind I always let them win
Two of a kind is you and I, you make it easier for me to take the easy way down
Without any notice, all of a sudden then without warning, I’m Back where I began
And now it’s starting to show, the older, my bones grow
I’m certain that I’ll do it again
I’m a quick start, foolish hearted, easy target, printed in my skin
They aren’t far behind but I don’t mind I always let them win
Two of a kind is you and I, you make it easier for me to take the easy way.
