"Consolation Prize" lyrics

"Consolation Prize"

You got the heart consolation prize
For having just survived, having just survived
Every night following the end
Having just survived, and now you are just friends
And people insisted on telling you
What a great couple you had been
They insisted on telling you over again

You walk through the wind, you walk [?]
With thoughts of maybe seeing you again
You walk through the wind, through the night you did
And now you're just a tired young man

And people insisted on telling you
What a great couple you had been
They insisted on telling you over again

(Look out, look out!)

You got the heart consolation prize
For having just survived, having just survived
Every night following the end
Having just survived, and now you are just friends
And people insisted on telling you
What a great couple you had been
They insisted on telling you over and over and over again
