How could we lose sight of what matters most
Trying to love what cannot love us back. All we have is not worth living for if we do not know when to let go
That I could do this on my own.
Now our perceptions have grown.
Branches and petals of paper and metal.
Amber tinfoil forest confines us...
And we disconnect like this is the end
we disconnect like this is the end
Carrie dresses like a kid for fun,
Licks her lips like they're something other.
Tries to tell you life has just begun,
But you know she's getting something other,
Than the love from her mother.
And my fuel's burning.
I can't turn back
The exits are stacked.
So I sit here instead
And I try to forget
That I want you alone
So close and alone.
I've looked for love in stranger places,
but never found someone like you.
Someone whose smile makes me feel I've been holding back,
and now there's nothing I can't do.
sell me out, I’m yesterday’s old news
phrases left on paper,
black ink bleeding through the pages we made our history
call me foolish, I feel hopeless
and i'm making up my time through
time zones&city lines
so what else is new
you make me fall for you again
lead me on and tell me were "just friends
That I could do this on my own.
Now our perceptions have grown.
Branches and petals of paper and metal.
Amber tinfoil forest confines us...
And we disconnect like this is the end
we disconnect like this is the end
Carrie dresses like a kid for fun,
Licks her lips like they're something other.
Tries to tell you life has just begun,
But you know she's getting something other,
Than the love from her mother.
And my fuel's burning.
I can't turn back
The exits are stacked.
So I sit here instead
And I try to forget
That I want you alone
So close and alone.
I've looked for love in stranger places,
but never found someone like you.
Someone whose smile makes me feel I've been holding back,
and now there's nothing I can't do.
sell me out, I’m yesterday’s old news
phrases left on paper,
black ink bleeding through the pages we made our history
call me foolish, I feel hopeless
and i'm making up my time through
time zones&city lines
so what else is new
you make me fall for you again
lead me on and tell me were "just friends
