So you're here at the end of time
And you don't know which way to go
Well you better make up your mind
While you've still got something to show
And you find you're an actor in nobody's play
In your mind is an endless repeating refrain
Why go straight for the flame?
You know you must be quite insane
To go through all that pain
And all the shouting
And now it's a borrowed day
And they all had left her but you
Don't frown and tomorrow pray
On our knees in front of the truth
There's a sign, as you try to catch up with the train
In your mind is that same old incessant refrain
And now this August rain
Is running past our feet again
Unlock this ball and chain
We're getting crowded
A cloudy holiday
It's only Monday anyway
No time to slip away
They won't allow it
Trying to catch a wave
Smoke on the beach in the day
Wondering how to say
I'm trying to get you away
Hey, hideaway
Hey, hideaway
Hey, hideaway
Hey, hideaway
Hey, hideaway
Hey, hideaway
Hey, hideaway
Hideaway
Hideaway
