Let's Do the Things We Normally Do

                                  Let's pretend that we'll be here tomorrow

And I'll try for you to be a little more on time

I know you need to say you know you've let me down

But you haven't, and it's hard to talk with people all around



Please don't say how proud you are

Let's do the things we normally do

Well I'll say see you later

You'll sing a line or two

From your rebel songs sung out of tune

Don't hold my hand for longer than you need to



Lets forget that we're here and make some plans

We'll go for walks

Sit together on the bench we always sat

I'll tell you every little detail of my day and so will you

But don't try to stay awake

I'm feeling tired too



This is just another day

Let's do the things we normally do

Well I'll say see you later you'll sing a line or two

From your rebel songs sung out of tune

Don't hold my hand for longer than you need to



Armored cars and tanks and guns, came to take away our sons

And everybody stood behind

The man behind the wire

There's a fight to love

A fight to have

Your bed's a battlefield and back

And all of this will just be stripped away



Let's do the things we normally do

I'll say see you later you'll sing a line or two

From your rebel songs sung out of tune

Don't hold my hand for longer than you need to

Don't look me in the eye more than you need to



Don't try to say goodbye if I don't want to

Don't say how proud you are

And say I'm far away

And take along

And say a word

And I can say I fade away
