Looks like the ending has begun
 
 So flick your cigarette into the mess
 
 Walk right by the homeless guy
 
 Careful not to catch his eye
 
 If nobody's looking, why confess
 
  
  The ride is fast and it won't last
 
 And it's already in the past
  
 
 Squinting at a fluorescent screen
 
 Thinking about what's already been
 
 While outside the sky is turning brown
 
 Worship the idols of Seventeen
 
 Children in makeup on magazines
 
 When did it all turn upside down
  
 
 The ride is fast and it won't last
 
 It's already in the past
 
 And the nuclear sun is blazing overhead
 
 Turning the sky white and red
  
 
 The ride is fast and it won't last
 
 It's already in the past
 
 Habits die hard, but it's in our cards
 
 At last, at last
  
 
 And the nuclear sun is blazing overhead
  
 
 The ride is fast and it won't last
 
 And it's already in the past
