The beginning gets me every time
I can't help replaying in my mind
As perfect strangers, we look so fine
You couldn't see
'Til you met me

It's not so bad
It's not so bad
It's not so bad
It's not so bad

What is this instinct, to hate on everything?
Seems it's in me, badly, I'm afraid
I'm so much better, when you're around
And I'm still here
If it's not clear

It's not so bad
I take it back
It's not so bad
It's not so bad

It plays in my head alone
Our love is a picture show
It plays in my head alone
The screening's closed

It's not so bad
It's not so bad
It's not so bad
It's not so bad

If it's revision, at least it's comforting
No cataclysms, in our history
It came on slowly, yeah we had time
