I've watched empires rise
But I could never tell you
How I felt
Two liars lost in time
Blinking through the decades
We made our bed
But you are still eternal in my eyes
We are so entangled in this life
And here you stand
Echoes of all our near misses
Why does a part of me still believe
This universe needs revisions?
'Cause no one like you
Could ever trust me
We're no perfect pair
I don't know why I love you
But I do
All those words unsaid
All the time we wasted
We made our bed
Echoes of all our near misses
Why does a part of me still believe
This universe needs revisions?
'Cause no one like you
Could ever trust me
Running through my head, on fire
I dab away your smile with atrazine
You're standing so close and you're a liar
The prettiest lips are still hiding teeth
Ahhh ahhhh
Do you catch my eye
Just to check I'm looking?
Do you start those fights
To get my attention?
Would you open up
If the world was burning?
Would you say nothing at all?
But here you stand
Here you stand
Echoes of all our near misses
Glad that a part of me still believes
This universe lacks all reason
But something made sense
The day you met me
Running through my head, on fire
I give in to your smile and take a leap
You're standing so close, never higher
The prettiest end is honestly
You and me
