You and I
Felt so good to begin with, didn’t we?
Well now it seems
There’s far too many adverts in between
And we don’t speak
So we’re left in constant silence
And it’s haunting me
So I'm ready now to fight this
You have the shield
I’ll take the sword
I no longer love you
No longer love you
I'm not afraid of
Danger in the dark
I no longer love you
No longer love you
You and I
Aren’t working, burning on the bridges now
We’re trapped inside
Screaming: Won’t somebody get me out?
You have the shield
I’ll take the sword
I no longer love you
No longer love you
I'm not afraid of
Danger in the dark
I no longer love you
No longer love you
I no longer love you
No longer love you
No longer love you
No longer love you
And we don’t speak
So we’re left in constant silence
And it’s haunting me
So I'm ready now to fight this
You have the shield
I’ll take the sword
I no longer love you
No longer love you
I'm not afraid of
Danger in the dark
I no longer love you
No longer love you
You have the shield
I’ll take the sword
I no longer love you
No longer love you
I'm not afraid of
Danger in the dark
I no longer love you
No longer love you
You and I
Felt so good to begin with, didn’t we?
But now it seems
These shields and swords are haunting me
