[Verse 1] You said we should talk before we fade away I said yeah, maybe, maybe Saturday You said Saturday sounds like a place to start I said start is hard when you’ve misplaced the heart You said your heart was tired of being ignored I said ignored is what the silence is for You said for what, exactly, are we still here? I said here is fine if you don’t disappear [Pre-Chorus] And every line we throw Comes back a little worse We’re not saving us We’re rehearsing the curse [Chorus] We keep trying to rhyme But we’re losing the meaning You say you’re leaving I say I’ve been leaning You say it’s breaking I say I’ve been faking You say we’re through I say me too But only because it fits Only because it lands Only because we’re holding on With badly written hands [Verse 2] You said the kitchen feels colder these days I said days go by in strange little ways You said ways like this are how people divide I said divide is easy when no one picks a side You said a side is something we used to share I said share sounds nice but I’m barely there You said there you go, making it small again I said again is all we’ve ever been [Pre-Chorus] And every fix we make Bends something else out of shape We call it compromise But it tastes like escape [Chorus] We keep trying to rhyme But we’re losing the meaning You say you’re leaving I say I’ve been leaning You say it’s breaking I say I’ve been faking You say we’re through I say me too But only because it fits Only because it lands Only because we’re holding on With badly written hands [Bridge] You said maybe love is learning when to stop I said stop is just the sound before the drop You said the drop is coming, can’t you see? I said see, that one almost worked for me You said don’t make this a joke I said joke? I nearly spoke You said spoke like someone who still cared I said cared rhymes better when you’re scared [Final Chorus] We keep trying to rhyme But we’re losing the reason You call it closure I call it the season You say it’s ending I say I’m pretending You say goodbye I say nice try But only because it fits Only because it’s clean Only because the last line Needed somewhere to lean [Outro] You said this is the end I said end rhymes with friend You said don’t I said won’t You said stay I said away And somehow That made it worse
