Lyrics How It Lasts - Walking Heads

I will never go outside
Hand on the glass that divides
Watching you laugh past the border
You will live on and I will be stuck in time

You know these days just seem gray
We're all just built the same
I saw you, through the glass
I guess that's just how it lasts

I roll back my eyes
Can only live in it for so long
When we left and we burnt it down
Will you be better the next round?

You know these days just seem gray
We're all just built the same
I saw you, through the glass
I guess that's just how it lasts

I know the moonlight when I see it
It shines its light on me
Under the stars, I know you're out there
With a friend, under circumstance

You know these days just seem gray
We're all just built the same
I saw you, through the glass
I guess that's just how it lasts

I will never go outside
Hand on the glass that divides
Watching you laugh past the border
You will live on and I will be stuck in time
