I called her to come over
You can come and play house with me
We'll pretend to be older

We don't make love, we make believe

No meaning, just a feeling

But I don't feel anything
'Cause the real thing's to much for me
So make it seem like it's nothing


We are two bookends
With so many unspoken words between us

There's so much that's left
Left unsaid


(Part 1)
Keep the words, keep the space
We create better days

So we don't ever know
What we can never know


(Part 2)
Days race, hope fades
We wait, we stay, don't change

Don't face what we made
Find our misplaced mistakes


We keep the same rhythm
But we're so out of sync
So out of sync


Your hollow eyes, they follow mine
We're 25, but live a lie

So pull the covers over our own eyes
And lay by each other's side
She says she'll take

Broken hearts and throw them away
Into broken pleasures
Head first into stolen treasures


We play a game
We play it safe

It's too late
Too late
