We wanted to find love
|
We wanted success
|
Until nothing was enough
|
Until my middle name was "excess"
|
|
And somehow I lost touch
|
When you went out of sight
|
When you got lost into the city
|
Got lost into the night
|
|
I was in need of help
|
Heading to blackout
|
Till someone told me "Run on in, honey,
|
Before somebody blows your goddamn brains out"
|
|
You shoplifted as a child
|
I had a model's smile
|
You carried all my hopes
|
Until something broke inside
|
|
But now we float
|
Take life as it comes
|
We float
|
Take life as it comes
|
|
So will we die of shock
|
Die without a trial
|
Die on Good Friday
|
While holding each other tight
|
|
This is kind of about you
|
This is kind of about me
|
We just kind of lost our way
|
We were looking to be free
|
|
But one day, we'll float
|
Take life as it comes
|
We'll float
|
Take life as it comes
|
|
But one day, we'll float
|
Take life as it comes
|
But one day, we'll float
|
Take life as it comes
|
|
Oh, one day...
|
