- Songwriters: David Gray
All our lives we've dreamed about it
Just to find that it was never real
This sure ain't no great Valhalla
Coming closer each turn of the wheel
Forlorn, adrift on seas of beige
In this our golden age
Even in our darkest hour
Never thought that it could get so bad
Bullied, suckered, pimped and patronized
Every day your tawdry little lives
So lose your head and step within
The silence deafening
Now you saw it coming and I saw it coming
We all saw it coming but we still bought it
You saw it coming and I saw it coming
But still running full steam ahead
In and out of consciousness
It breaks my heart to see you like this
Crying, wringing hands and cursing fate
Always so little far too late
It's 3 a.m. I'm wide awake
There's still one call to make, one call
Now you saw it coming and I saw it coming
We all saw it coming but we still bought it
You saw it coming and I saw it coming
We all saw it coming but we still bought it
You running full steam ahead
Running full steam ahead
Running full steam ahead
Gonna cover my eyes
Running full steam
Now you saw it coming and I saw it coming
We all saw it coming but we still bought it
You saw it coming and I saw it coming
We all saw it coming but we still bought it
In the Know
