Life 2: The Unhappy Ending

Scene one, late at night, interior We found ourselves inside the car Our hero has just gone too far His lover bleeding in the back He removes the lucky from the pack He knows now that he can't turn back Cut to the cherry lights in the rear view He realizes that he's through Whispers, "Darling, let's have fun" As they exit doing ninety-one Drives until he's in the woods If he loses them, he's gone for good Life was supposed to be a film Was supposed to be a thriller Was supposed to end in tears But life, could be nothing but a joke Could be nothing but a con Where's my unhappy ending gone? Oh, life was supposed to be a film Was supposed to be a thriller Was supposed to end in fire But life, could be nothing but a joke A sentimental little card Where's my unhappy ending gone? Where's my unhappy ending? Here's the part where you save me Here is the scene where you save the day Why can't the ending be happy? Why must it always resolve this way? Fade in, the cabin in the woods somewhere Our hero strokes his lover's hair Says, "Don't worry, love, we're almost done" Says, "I could have really been someone" Outside, they surround the house with pistols drawn Some waiting there until the dawn Sargent says, "He can't go on We know now that he can't go on" Life was supposed to be a film Was supposed to be a thriller Was supposed to end in blood But life, could be nothing but a joke A sentimental little card Where's my unhappy ending gone? Oh, life was supposed to be a film Was supposed to be a thriller Was supposed to end in fire But life, turns out it's nothing but a dream And I'll miss it when it's gone I want the story to go on and on and on and on And on and on and on and on and on and on But it can't go on But it can't go on But it can't go on But it can't go on But it can't go on But it can't go on --- Life 2: The Unhappy Ending - Stars
