lyrics

The bookcase now hides the mirror. Look at me. How many fingers does it take to hold you down? Sitting up now. Nothing is the same from here on out now. It's a shame, that's all I have to say. It's a waste. What I wouldn't pay to hear those words again. Trying hard to keep eyes open. Sinking in it's really over now. Hey! Hey, it's over now!

Tell me what you mean when you say "together." Never had the words before each other. It's a piece of landfill you bought at a yard sale. Now it holds your deepest thoughts, holds for blackmail. Tell me: what does it mean, the words you heard, the things you've seen? Tell me: how do we get back? A gentle word, another setback.

Can't we lie to each other like we did before? My mind is weaker, can't keep pace anymore. Can I sing you a new song that I only just learned? I'll keep it soft, the sweetest you've heard.

Trying hard to keep eyes open. Sinking in it's really over now. Hey! Hey! Hey, it's over now!
