momentary bliss

I used to count the steps from my place to yours
I can't do that anymore
No, I'm done with forcing childish chores
I poison myself with each sweet thought that I have
Cause you're not the one I knew
No, you never were the one I knew

I can't do this for much longer - rounding up the fallen soldiers
You're spilling milk all over my garden
Baby's getting way too tired, her brain isn't rightly wired
To give me that little bit of peace I desire

So I'm asking again, is this how you make amends?
Cause I'm pretty sure the story's over, why'd you rip it open again?
So I ask you again, can we pretend to be friends?
Throw the armour out the window and then watch it break the garden fence

Getting high instead of getting real, you never tell me how you feel
Yeah, you burn me to the core, watch the flames and run away in fear
I don't know how to catch my breath, yeah, you leave me such a mess
And refuse to address this fatal timeline

So I'm asking again, is this how you make amends?
Cause I'm pretty sure the story's over, why'd you rip it open again?
So I ask you again, can we pretend to be friends?
Throw the armour out the window and then watch it break the garden fence
