Lyrics

Congratulations, I nearly bought your adoration
I even thought that you were waiting for me there
Congratulations on such abject speculation
I've not seen a soul so craven or behave so unaware
Congratulations, now all the words I had are wasted
And your train has left the station
And I couldn't pay the fare
The hardest part of coming home
Is knowing who'll be there
It's your face but I never see your smile
It's feeling like I'm losing you
And losing all my hair
Things that flourish when you're younger
Fall out after a while
These things grow then fall out after a while
Congratulations on such fine self-flagellation
Aren't the righteous all impatient with themselves?
Such indignation
Well I'm not here to preach persuasion
If you don't want to speak to Satan, don't call hell
Oh, congratulations on such keen-eyed observations
The mean guy role's been taken
But you play the part so well
And the hardest part of coming home
Is knowing who'll be there
It's your face but I never know the voice
Some days it's cold and callous
Some nights I swear you care
Sometimes I fear the worst of you
Won't leave me any choice
Sometimes I fear you won't give me a choice
Congratulations, well I guess you made your destination
And my need for explanations
Will die here with me someday
