lyrics

One more cigarette before bed
Every book in this house has been read
Screens on screens like waves of a tide
Anything to keep me occupied

You and I could’a been the best thing that ever happened to me
But you and I just need the distance so It can feel like a dream

Writing lines looking back and forward
Taking time and leave it distorted
Once the words had sense and meaning
Now just means for self-defeating

You and I could’a been the best thing that ever happened to me
But you and I just need the distance so it can feel like a dream

Was it just a waste of time - Well, isn’t everything
And the memories intwined - Still worth remembering
I could never promise you - I could never promise too
Anything more than a while - Anything more than a while

Every day’s a new chapter written
And all good stories have their villains
So I need space without distractions
But most of all I need your absence

You and I could’a been the best thing that ever happened to me
But you and I just need the distance so it can feel like a dream
