This only works because we both know it will never work out

So we pretend that it's not the end and we talk about

All of the days when we'll be together, we lie to ourselves because anything's better

Than what we have right now because I don't have anything

And I know that you'll go on forget about me

And I'll try to get by but there's no gaurentee

On things like these- the things that bring us to our knees

CHORUS:

Let's go back to the start to where it began

When you took my heart in the palm of your hand

But you took it away and now all that's left

Is this empty space in the heart of my chest

This only lasts because we both know it will never last long

So we keep alive all of the lies that we both know are wrong

But it's alright if it helps us fall asleep at night

But in the end we're both sleeping all alone again

CHORUS

And I know this is not enough, nothing is what we both dreamed of

When we dreamed and planned our lives out on the basement couch

It wasn't us

CHORUS
