Strangers

Still
Soul-deep in my camera roll
This was years ago
But there I am and there you are
This pain
Happy little memories
But now I only see you on a screen
Don't you remember?

What we had it had a pulse
It lived it breathed it laughed it talked
We planted seeds that grew to stalks
To stalks
And now we live like patients in a hospital
That always keep the curtains up
We always bleed we never talk
We never talk
We never talk

We promised not to let things change us
Then we became strangers
We became strangers

Stop
You'd pass me in the street
Scroll by me in your feed
And I'm the same I can't complain
But why?
Act like there's no history
We never take the time to talk
It's eyes ahead and walk and walk

And I take it with a grain of salt
You got your rights I've got my faults
We built a bridge to cut it off
Just cut it off
And now it feels like
What I thought was real was false
It's fine
It's fine
I walk it off
You're pulling pictures off the walls
But I know you know me
Know you know that

We promised not to let things change us
Then we became strangers
We became strangers
Tell me
How long did it take us
To become strangers?
To become strangers
