I want to tell you something 
It's not a secret or anything 
You're not alone in being alone 
At the end of a perfect day 

And if you leave all your dependents 
Then they will gain their independence 
Don't make a martyr of yourself 
It's just the end of a perfect day 

And it's never how it seems 
The rain may fall on the best laid schemes 
But in a written testimonial I'd say 
I never really knew you anyway 

I want to tell you something 
Now don't go crazy or anything 
Just want to tell you that it's over 
It's the end of a perfect day 

Do you want sign language? 
Don't want a knuckle sandwich! 
Now you can love or you can hate it's just 
The end of a perfect day 

You can't get inside someone 
So don't ask me if we're close 
I really couldn't tell you 
But I know you wouldn't really listen anyway 

It's a pain you have to bear 
And it's always going to be there 
But if you disappeared tomorrow 
Then the world would carry on without you anyway 

Mind over matter it seems 
Can stop you falling apart at the seams 
It's a matter of honour with me 
I could write out a hundred times 

Put my hand on my heart and say 
That I don't want to lie 
Don't want to lie 
Don't want to lie 
About the way it is 

I want to tell you something 
Don't act surprised now or anything 
Now you can revel in yourself 'cause 
It's just the end of a perfect day 

No it's not a pretty world out there 
With people dying of their own despair 
But in a written testimonial you'd say 
You never really knew them anyway
