We're breaking up, getting lost in the static

You're getting blurry, right in front of me

The footsteps growing quiet in the hallway as I let go

The gravity that attracts us helps us implode, or else we'd keep dividing but I know

We're aimed straight at each other

We are doomed to crash, so strike up a fire, light up the town, because

We're aimed straight at each other

This was meant to last

So don't try to fight it, the chaos will calm us down

Our lips move but we speak in a language that neither one of us can understand

You sleepwalk through the tape and the sirens, and I let go

The rules of our attraction were carved in stone

And yet you keep resisting, but I know

We're aimed straight at each other

We are doomed to crash, so strike up a fire, light up the town, because

We're aimed straight at each other

This was meant to last

So don't try to fight it, the chaos will calm us down

It doesn't matter

It's a disaster

The chaos will calm us down

We're aimed straight at each other

We are doomed to crash, so strike up a fire, light up the town, because

We're aimed straight at each other

This was meant to last

So don't try to fight it, the chaos will calm us down

You're wearing us down, because

We're aimed straight at each other

We are doomed to crash, so strike up a fire, light up the town, because

We're aimed straight at each other

This was meant to last

So don't try to fight it, the chaos will calm us down
