Feels Like It's Over
I know I'm lost
A ghost inhabiting the shell of a man
Who looks like someone you loved
And I'm cognizant of the way our eyes will do anything
To avoid exchanging pain
I died a little
Cried a river and now our tears have all turned into stone
Embraced in our Pompei
It feels like it's over
But nobody's leaving
There's so much love left
So why am I grieving?
You go to bed first
I stay up reading
You have your back turned
You're already dreaming
Dancing in circles
Avoiding the inevitable
It's so polite and that's what's breaking my heart
Because we don't even fight for it
We don't even break a sweat
We don't even scream or cry but baby there was a time
When baby you and I
We would have died defending this love
We would have died for it
We would have died defending it
We would have died
When I was young
I guess it fulfilled me emotionally
To give myself away
That selfless act was not as noble as it first seemed
It tethered you to me
The fire in your eyes
The independent streak that drew you close to me
It cooled under my reign
It feels like it's over
But nobody's leaving
There's so much love left
So why am I grieving?
You go to bed first
I stay up reading
You have your back turned
You're already dreaming
Dancing in circles
Avoiding the inevitable
It's so polite and that's what's breaking my heart
Because we don't even fight for it
We don't even break a sweat
We don't even scream or cry but baby there was a time
Baby you and I
We would have died defending this love
We would have died for it
We would have died defending it
We would have died
Sunlight to sunset
Lovers to best friends
Making us feel like we're
Strangers in strange beds
Fumbling through feelings
Habitual dealings
Movie ended waiting for
Post credit scenes yeah
Sunlight to sunset
Lovers to best friends
Making us feel like we're
Strangers in strange beds
Fumbling through feelings
Habitual dealings
Movie ended waiting for
Post credit scenes yeah
It feels like it's over
But nobody's leaving
There's so much love left
So why am I grieving?
You go to bed first

Avoiding the inevitable
It's so polite and that's what's breaking my heart
Because we don't even fight for it
We don't even break a sweat
We don't even scream or cry but baby there was a time
When baby you and I
We would have died defending this love
We would have died for it
We would have died defending it
We would have died (It feels like it's over)
But nobody's leaving
There's so much love left
So why am I grieving?
You go to bed first
I stay up reading
You have your back turned
You're already dreaming
Dancing in circles
Avoiding the inevitable
It's so polite and that's what's breaking my heart
Because we don't even fight for it
We don't even break a sweat
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh-uh, hey-hey
