lyrics

you started laughing
when i used your first name
unsure what was happening
after years spent in shade

but i wasn't acting
saw your smile fade away
wondered which adaption
from my head out would play

(prechorus)
try to remember
that i don't matter
the world's seconds away

(chorus)
but that was the last time
and that was a lifetime away
that you'd fallen outright
that you couldn't will how this would play


after the party
you picked through my every phrase
i set it into action
you shrunk ten steps away

later you'd done the math and
said what all you could leave
have we just been acting
devoid of chemistry

(prechorus)
you never remember
that no one matters
no still they hold your brain

(chorus)
but that was the last time
and that was a lifetime away
that you'd fallen outright
that you couldn't will how this would play

spent the summer in athens
tried to wash the sounds away
but that was the last one
that you won't see all the way

(bridge)
and if i go then go
you used to see the desperation come
in the face of those who played the game
we laughed and said from high above

that it's not our game
they won't see our names
oh god that concert's weeks away
well maybe by then you'll have stopped
calling it our place

(chorus)
but that was the last time
and that was a lifetime away
that you'd fallen outright
that you couldn't will how this would play

spent the summer in athens
could you be the one for me
and that was the last one
that we won't see all the way
