lyrics

It's always me vs. you
Tell me everything that I gotta do
Trade in the bad days
Call 'em all throwaways
Tell me what else of myself I am supposed to erase
A sunny disposition
You know I've got a condition
And you've got some conditions

Some people write a note
Maybe I'll get it right this time
But I've got nothing left to say
All my records were delivered and filed away
You've got your arrangements
And I have missed some engagements
We're counting down to estrangement
Yeah we're just counting down

I came back with sand in my shoes
Salt in my wounds
Salt in my hair
There was always something missing there
Were we ever in love
What is the word that I was thinking of

We are always adapting
Versions of who we used to be
You just keep starting over again and again
Until everything you were is a mystery to yourself and everyone around you
I'm not here to confound you
Cause I know you're counting down

I came back with sand in my shoes
Salt in my wounds
Salt in my hair
There was always something missing there
Were we ever in love
What are the words that I was thinking of
What are the words that I was thinking of
Yeah I was really in love

I swear that it was real to me
That's why it's ripping me apart right now
Cause even after everything
We couldn't make it work somehow
And even as we fall apart
There's nothing that I could want more
All the things I'll never be
And all the things you're looking for
