(Verse 1) Counting down the seconds on a broken watch Trying to repair a line I shouldn't botch Out of my mouth, out of my head Living in the spaces of the things you said The room is turning but the air is cold A story already told. (Pre-Chorus) Your light bleeding, cutting through the gray We were just a project meant to fade away The gears are spinning, the wire is thin Look at the mess we’re in. [Saxophone Hook / Chorus Drop] (Chorus) Moments fade far too fast Dreams of the future feel like the past Walking through a cloudy vision, carrying a heavy heart Oh, the love was over before the start Yeah, we’re dancing through the wreckage now The love was over before the start. [Sultry Saxophone Reverb Solo] (Verse 2) Moving to the cadence just to mask the strain Running from the shelter right into the rain You look so perfect in the freezing blue But I’m looking right through you We built a blueprint on shifting sand Now it’s slipping through my hand. (Pre-Chorus) Your light bleeding, cutting through the gray We were just a project meant to fade away The gears are spinning, the wire is thin Look at the mess we’re in. (Chorus) Moments fade far too fast Dreams of the future feel like the past Walking through a cloudy vision, carrying a heavy heart Oh, the love was over before the start Yeah, we’re dancing through the wreckage now The love was over before the start. (Bridge) (The instrumentation drops out slightly here, leaving a driving rhythm and vocals) Before the first hello, I already felt the goodbye Before the first glance, I knew exactly how we’d die An open circuit, moving at the speed of light Hold on tight... (Rhythm builds back up aggressively) ...Hold on tight! [Intense Saxophone Breakdown] (Chorus) Moments fade far too fast Dreams of the future feel like the past Walking through a cloudy vision, carrying a heavy heart Oh, the love was over before the start Yeah, we’re dancing through the wreckage now The love was over before the start. (Outro) Over before it started... [Saxophone fades out in echo] Cloudy vision, heavy heart. Fade to black.
