about

we were better than that.

lyrics

Oh god this part of me won't ever go to sleep
Cause god this part of me won't ever go extinct
And god? I just thought this kinda thinkin must mean something
If you're even listening
Is anybody out there?
Well? is anybody there?
Well, I don't even care
I just thought you should know

I just thought you should know that
When you lied to me, to my face
This place took on a whole different light
When I saw I'd become what I swore I'd never be
Darling, I nearly took myself to a mountain
Where I'd live in seclusion
Regretting never a ring around you and
All the trees on the mountain would like your illusion
When I turn my head too fast cause I thought I heard you singing
"it's a lovelife for all of time"
And it keeps me awake when I'm alone at night
This is my last goodbye so I let it rhyme
This time I think I'll tell you what my car-crash-heart woulda said
About 'burning bridges and driving off of them'
About loaded guns and loaded friends
And our hearts held hostage
But I'm headstrong and I always thought that we were better than that
Like we were legends from a Roman Coliseum
But now history's passed and it's Formal Season
All goodbyes and tears in eyes
We're just college sweethearts severing ties
To go make a 'real world life'
But I hope that you never forget that we were better than that
Like we were legends from a Roman Coliseum
But now history's passed and it's Formal Season
All goodbyes and tears in eyes
We're just college sweethearts severing ties
To go make a 'real world life'
But I hope that you never forget that
