Years ago, you said to me, "I think I`m losing the fight
Or the fight is losing me, I`m not certain"
And here we are, the closing scenes and all the house lights come up
Oh, the falling of our final curtain

I`ve played a role for so long that I`ve forgotten myself
But I said I`d be there and I`m keeping my word
You`ve played yourself so well and now I want to be you
A great imitation of losing my nerve

So it`s over and everything is wrong, everything has gone
And I know that everything means nothing
Oh, it`s over but I don`t want to fight, I don`t want to be right
I know that everything means nothing
On the road to Damascus they fell

I saw the light, I saw the light but hey, it never saw me
Oh, conversion has just left me heathen
And we could wait a thousand years perhaps a million or more
If it`s worth waiting for but I`m leaving

So on to a Mecca of earthly delights
Depression is only desire deprived
Once more unto the breach and f**k my getting it right
We`ve died for so long, let`s just get out alive

`Cause it`s over and everything is wrong, everything has gone
And I know that everything means nothing
Oh, it`s over but I don`t want to fight, I don`t want to be right
I know that everything means nothing
On the road to Damascus they fell
Well, I`ve been to Damascus

Hell is where I`m gonna be
The devil my intimate friend
And hell is other people`s hearts
And knowing that everything must end

Oh, it`s over and everything is wrong, everything has gone
And I know that everything means nothing
Oh, it`s over but I don`t want to fight, I don`t want to be right
I know that everything means nothing, oh, it`s over

Oh, it`s over but I don`t want to fight, I don`t want to be right
I know that everything means nothing
On the road to Damascus they fell
I`ve been to Damascus as well
