[Verse 1] Coffee’s gone cold on the table Our pictures fade on the fridge You said “forever’s a fable” I laughed you off the edge [Pre-Chorus] Now every plan we drew in pen Bleeds right through my shaking hands [Chorus] Time makes fools of us all Crowns us kings just to watch us fall We swear we’ll never change Then blink and we’re strangers again Yeah Time makes fools of us all [Verse 2] Found your coat in the closet Ticket stubs in the sleeve Every date that we promised Turned to dust I can’t breathe [Pre-Chorus] Thought we were carved into stone Turns out we were written in smoke [Chorus] Time makes fools of us all Crowns us kings just to watch us fall We swear we’ll never change Then blink and we’re strangers again Yeah Time makes fools of us all [Bridge] [Guitar solo over half-time drums] You were right there Then you weren’t there How does “always” End in thin air? (yeah) If I could steal one steady day Would you still turn and walk away? [Chorus] Time makes fools of us all Crowns us kings just to watch us fall We swear we’ll never change Then blink and we’re strangers again Yeah Time makes fools of us all [Outro] [Band drops Vocal over clean guitar] Time makes fools of us all (one more call, one more call) [Full band crashes back in on last word]
