What We Were

It's like walking in the middle of a fallout zone
The beautiful thing you once called home is gone
And you can't go back
It's like trying to build a house on a beach by the sea
Got a wonderful view but when the tide comes in you'll see
It'll all be gone

We were destined to fall down and ceased to stand
We're beyond too far gone to ever find dry land

I don't wanna go back to what we were
As hard as that is for me to say, it needs to be heard
Our time is up, we've crossed the line
I used to be your and you used to be mine
And now it's over and neither of us can go back
To what we were

You don't know how hard it was for me to walk away
When you said everything you said that day
You didn't feel the same
In hindsight I can see it's better for me
If we're not together but right now I don't understand
Why you lied to me, so

Just so you know I won't be waiting around for you
There's someone better out there for me than you

I don't wanna go back to what we were
As hard as that is for me to say, it needs to be heard
Our time is up, we've crossed the line
I used to be your and you used to be mine
And now it's over and neither of us can go back
To what we were

No, I don't want you back at all
It's just sometimes I wish I could forget it all

I don't wanna go back to what we were
As hard as that is for me to say, it needs to be heard
Our time is up, we've crossed the line
I used to be your and you used to be mine
And now it's over and neither of us can go back
To what we were
