lyrics
I wasn’t your first or your last or your best
I need to stop thinking and put this to rest
It wasn’t my fault and I’ll admit it wasn’t yours
It is what it is, it was never a choice
But intentions mean nothing when they’re only meant
We don’t choose our feelings, they cannot be helped
What counts is the follow-through, the proof of your synapses
It’s every single thing or it just all collapses
But bit by bit, I’m losing what you smell and taste like
Trace by trace, I’m slowly shedding your electrons
Spin by spin, the world turns and it will never stop for love
In seven years, I’ll be a brand new person, someone that you wouldn’t recognize
When was the last time I’d seen this familiar place?
Was it a lifetime ago? No, just a couple days
It’s so unremarkable, the colour of the sky
You’d never catch the subtlety, how it means everything to me
The longer time passes, the more that it seems
Like no time has passed and I just want you back
Like nothing has happened but that isn’t true
And I’m sure it’s not like this for you
But bit by bit, I’m losing what you smell and taste like
Drop by drop, there’s a river that’s forever changing
Spin by spin, the world turns and it will never stop for love
And it means nothing that our door is closed forever, the universe won’t shed a tear for us
