Watch your makeup,
there is just a smudge beneath the eye
You look great in that dress,
it hits every curve just right
We're got dinner at eight, and then drinks by nine
I love you so, it's out anniversary tonight

Suddenly everything shakes as if it's starting to break
And now I'm on my knees,
my wife screams, "What's Wrong!?"
As the stereo plays our song, Only In Dreams

Just last Friday is when my heart failed again
I was thinking that I should find a friend
I bought her several drinks,
and slipped the ring into my hand
We drove to her place
and let the good times roll again

Suddenly everything shakes as my protection breaks
And now I'm on my knees,
and I scream, "This was wrong!"
As I live, the stereo plays the song, The Finishing

Is this it? Is this how I have spent my life?
Lying there with a broken heart on bedroom floors
And finally, finally, I realize,
I realize that I'm only a man

One thing I have to know, where did the miracles go?
And if a simple man believes,
will it start again with me?

If I were the maker I would fashion out a blade
To cut out every inch of dead heart I've made
