Nightly Progression

This nightly progression is breaking my heart
You end up so different than the way you start
And all your laughing leaves me cold

Because to me it's regression, it's the loss of a friend
Our good conversation is now pointless
And all your laughing leaves me cold

And all we ever want is more
And all we ever get is the same
And all we ever want is a chance
And all we ever get are chances
And all we ever really do is stand and stare in the smoky air

There's not a whole lot happening, but there's a whole lot of talking
Do you know that you're becoming the same person you're mocking
It's gradual and then it's shocking and it leaves you old

And all we ever want is more
And all we ever get is the same
And all we ever want is a chance
And all we ever get are chances
And all we ever really do is stand and stare in the smoky air

And all we ever want is more
And all we ever get is the same
And all we ever want is a chance
And all we ever get are chances
And all we ever really do is stand and stare in the smoky air
