Permanent

You liked it so much in the city
You know I could not stand it there
You loved to get lost in the people
And pretend that they really cared
You know you're such a bad imposter
Hiding your wings beneath your coat
I watched your footprints making patterns
Away from me into the snow
Now I don't believe in nothing anymore...
Cuz love is permanent *not* temporary
And it's driven straight into our chest
And buried much too deep
To just pull out like *weeds in a garden*
It's permanent
Well I'm sorry
So lately I've been going crazy
Trying to get you off my mind
Cuz thoughts of you hang just like pictures
And gather dust over the time
We hung them up just like real lovers
And drove our nails into the wall
Cuz we thought they'd be there forever
We weren't permanent at all
And it's getting much too hard to see it now...
Cuz love is permanent *not* temporary
And it's driven straight into our chest
And buried much too deep
To just pull out like *weeds in a garden*
It's permanent
Well I'm sorry
