lyrics

We've worn our war paint out on glistening streets,
We've carved our differences in concrete trees,
Your fingertips ripped holes in hearts disguise,
Salt streams like laser beams swell in your eyes.

(We walk in step)
Like it's all we ever wished for, all we ever dreamed of
(We walk in step)
Like it's going out of style.
But all the while…
Eyes tell tales on painted smiles

No matter what we say, our hearts are breaking away,
I know I'll never find a better forever than you and I together,
But it's just not the same.
You know I wanna stay, this night is fading to day,
So if we can't let go,
Does it maybe mean we're meant to be this way.

We've been off and on, like a naught and one,
We've never held this down for all too long,
Lights flashing, buzz beats breaking, heart beats slow
But we walk in step,
And just hope that it won't show.

But everybody knows

No matter what we say, our hearts are breaking away,
I know I'll never find a better forever than you and I together,
But it's just not the same.
You know I wanna stay, this night is fading to day,
So if we can't let go,
Does it maybe mean we're meant to be this way.

Tear it up but keep it in your pocket,
Get it out and dust it off, pretend like we've forgotten,
Every looking back, heartstring snap out in the rain…

No matter what we say, our hearts are breaking away,
I know I'll never find a better forever than you and I together,
But it's just not the same.
You know I wanna stay, this night is fading to day,
So if we can't let go,
Does it maybe mean we're meant to be this way.
