I feel the fatigue in his bones As he tries to close our homes To the oncoming wind And he knows that he’s sinned So he can’t hold my gaze Should I tell him that there’s no one to save When he tries to reach out to catch the lapel Of the girl who fell Into his arms for a while And he could crack cameras with a smile And I watched it break across you so easy It was as though the Universe was just there to please me As I shut half of my soul down So I can go undetected in your town But eventually, the bells, they rang And somewhere our song sang Out its own refrain And it was as though a train Ran right through the gates Now the boy thinks the girl hates Him for what he is I just had to go so we could both live Not merely survive Sometimes I wonder if you’re still alive Coz I dropped out of the scene And I only meet you in my dream And I woke up at five in the morning And something had me mourning As I screamed “he’s dead” They conspire to kill me instead And it was never what I wanted I wonder if the love we share is haunted By the ghost of lives past Something last But something just fall away Like it was never made to stay And he casts a glance my way Would you dance if the record play Our song again Which one was it, the one about men And how they fall short of the sky When we are released do we die Into an open expanse And would our love get another chance When the rote learned is done After a hundred echoes around the sun
