Lyrics
I used to think, one day we’d tell the sto ry of us.
How we met and the sparks flew in stant ly.
Peo ple would say “They’re the luck y ones.”
I used to know my place was the spot next to you.
Now I’m search ing the room for an emp ty seat.
’Cause late ly I don’t e ven (C)know what page you’re on.
(C)Oh, a sim ple com pli (Dm)ca tion, (F)mis com mu ni (Bb)ca tions lead to (F)fall out.
(Bb)So man y things that I wish you knew.
(C)So man y walls up, I can’t break through.
Now I’m stand ing a lone in a crowd ed room and we’re not speak ing.
And I’m dy ing to know, is it kill ing you like it’s kill ing me?
Yeah.
I don’t know what to say, since a twist of (F)fate when it all broke (Bb)down.
And the (Dm)sto ry of us looks a (C)lot like a tra ge dy now.
The end.
