Ever Since

Measure the moments by the almost and the came close,

By the "what the fucks?" and the "I don't knows"

Because soon they're going to notice the space between us starting to show.

We played the songs with all the wrong notes,

Played 'em too slow to the empty rooms where your friends don't go

Because they don't need to know

That there's nothing good that doesn't implode.

But I know that we don't have the strength to let it go

If there was a way to fight a decade's slow decay,

There'd be no telling how the sadder songs would play.

I'm just so sick of the words, sick of the feelings they can't relay.

There's only so many ways you can burn out and drop off the earth's face,

Fuck off and fade away.

Keep it down or drown it out

It all gets swallowed anyhow

If there was ever a high road they washed it out

It's haunting how it all comes back around

Because you can't turn the tables if they put nothing down

But you know that we don't have the strength to let it go

If there was a way to fight a decade's slow decay,

There'd be no telling how the sadder songs would play.

I'm just so sick of the words, sick of the feelings they can't relay.

There's only so many ways you can burn out

And drop off the earth's face,

Fuck off and fade away

Tell me, have I been a fool?

Was it something I did or I didn't do?

Was it something you saw in them that I was staring through?

I guess we had it to lose, but that just makes it harder now that it's through.

You chose the other side of a mountain I can't move.
