Last night was a car crash
Highlights meet a quick end
Live the high life before the weekends
Coming down hard to the sunset sinking in
Didn't try hard for a diehard
Nothing I can say that you won't get wrong

And everybody asks: Where you're gone now?
Can you only really want what you don't have enough?
Everything you ever wanted adding up
To be the reason you can't stand it now
You talk a lot, well act like it

Finally found a way to get myself untangled
And undone but it's alright
This ain't been the dream in a long time
Make sure you play the music when my time's up
Oh, just say it I'm done

So, if you loved me, how was I supposed to know?
'Cause now we're fading and losing what we wanted most
But in spite of how you feel, it's not the end of the world
Some say these things are for the best
How are you so sure?

And you can find me where the sea pours into the stars
I'll get there someday
I hope you find everything you think that you want
Bruises will fade

Time on our side, we can wait for it
I'll be doing fine, if you are
'Cause life is but a dream
(Only as real as you let it be)

So if you loved me, how was I supposed to know?
And now we're fading, losing what we wanted most
But in spite of how you feel, it's not the end of the world
Some say these things are for the best
For better or worse
