lyrics

Well I never saw it coming
The page wasn't written and the house was barely built
And over the hill all our friends were doing the same thing
Just a little better

The longest line
The wasted time
And all the love in the world couldn't save us now

So I found a place on the other side of the road
And we roughly shared a suburb
Different stations and parallel lines
And I got to love you in reverse

And the skyline
The city lights
Became a dagger in the night

And leaves they dried
As we found sides
And friendship scattered like confetti

Between the cracks I feel unsteady
We found the silence, I'm not ready

You pulled the blind down before it got dark
And you lost a little courage
Escape from the last stop, escape from the road
Before you begin to slide

The painted signs
Inside your eyes
A clever warning in the light

So misaligned
And far behind
With frozen hands and places empty
