That's as high as it goes
That's as loud as it gets
Take a minute to breathe
Smoke your first cigarette
Scream as loud as you want
Scream as loud as you need
That's what the 90s were for
May they never recede
You could take me with you,
I could take you with me
Though we're better off here
I mean ultimately
We don't need cheering up
We don't need any more
We don't need what we want
That's what the 80s were for.
If you think you're alive
If you think you're a man
You were already dead right before it began
Searching for rock in a pile of sand
All the kind that you want till it's all in your hands
I know, I know it's not the easiest thing
To decide to let the easy things go
Cause it's hard enough without
Another sign that you've slowed down.
Chorus:
An emotion is a terrible thing,
But emotion is a terrible thing to waste.
I've been over it again and again,
And the only thing I'm over's the time it takes.
An emotion is a hell of a thing
Knowing emotion is a hell of a thing to face
You can do it with your back on the wall,
But the oldest ones are always the backs that break.
And if you fight with fire, if you wrestle to sleep
May the wrestling end, now you find what you need
And you fill it with lead, and it fills you with ink
Always less than you want, always more than you think.
You know, you know it's not the easiest thing
To decide to keep the easy things close
Cause it's hard enough without
An open mind to weigh you down.
Chorus:
An emotion is a terrible thing,
But emotion is a terrible thing to waste.
I've been over it again and again,
And the only thing I'm over's the time it takes.
An emotion is a hell of a thing
Knowing emotion is a hell of a thing to face
You can do it with your back on the wall,
But the oldest ones are always the backs that break.
And emotion is a terrible thing
Any motion is a terrible thing
And emotion is a terrible thing
