A Place I Used to Know

Hey, how've you been
Well I built a home
Far away from here
Far from everyone
Just for a while
Got to live without
My head spiraling out
Knew it wouldn't last
All of the pain
Began to fade away
Didn't hesitate
Didn't ruminate
I've walked alone
I got used to it
To the emptiness
Now I notice it

Oh I, I'm terrified of looking back
Romanticizing the past
Oh Dear, it's a life but it's not mine
Feels like a minute, the meter clicks
So I'll keep singing along
To the songs of a place I used to know

Tried to explain
It's like I'm half awake
Waiting for a change
Here it's all the same
The countdown begins
Someone help me deal
With the time limit
Kill the generic
I'll bike my way back
Till I breathe again
It's a thousand miles
from our little house
I'll carry the weight
It's not up to me
Till the day is gone
Till I fall asleep

Oh I, I'm terrified of looking back
Romanticizing the past
I know that now is all I have
Feels like a minute, the meter clicks
So I'll keep singing along
To the songs of a life I used to own

We said, it's a see you again
What does that even mean if
We don't make any plans

Oh I, I'm terrified of looking back
Romanticizing the past
Oh Dear, it's a life but it's not mine
Feels like a minute, the meter clicks
So I'll keep singing along
To the songs of a place I used to know

We said, it's a see you again
Is this how it ends
Or will I see you again

We said, it's a see you again
Is this how it ends
Or will I see you again
