What Are We?
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Given the circumstances
I wont ask you to stay
Given the circumstances
I would get it if you walked away
But all my life I’ve been looking for this
It seems fitting that things go to hell
Now that I found it
I don’t think we’re wasting time
But if you do, I’m sorry
I can see a life with you
But if you can’t, I’m sorry
If four months mean nothing
If none of it counts for something
Then I’m sorry
Oh, if spending every night in your bed has no meaning
Then what are we?
Just a sorry excuse for love?
Love
Lately the world is ending
So I won’t ask for too much
Lately the world is ending
And I find I pretend to be okay with too much
But all my life I’ve been looking for this
Real funny that things go to hell
Now that I found it
I don’t think we’re wasting time
But if you do, I’m sorry
I can see a life with you
But if you can’t, I’m sorry
If four months mean nothing
If none of it counts for something
Then I’m sorry
Oh, if spending every night in your bed has no meaning
Then what are we?
Just a sorry excuse for love?
Love
A sorry excuse for love
