Has it been so long since
every word meant everything that
we thought we would not lose?
We're using every pleasantry that fits
I'll walk you out
Call me when you get there
Just so I know you safe (just so I know you safe)

We're coughing up
parking lot goodbyes
Every line
we've heard and thought sounds right
We've got the timing down
Cue the spotlights
We can say it's the time and space away that kills,
but it's attention paid to passing blame
and calling fate
Every choice was ours to make

And now, if I had the chance to take it back
I'd take it back,
from the first word forward
We'll take our chances on our own
If it hurts to say that this was just a lapse in judgement
Well we should have seen it coming,
we should have seen it coming

We're coughing up
parking lot goodbyes
Every line
we've heard and thought sounds right
We've got the timing down
Cue the spotlights
We can say it's the time and space away that kills,
but it's attention paid to passing blame
and calling fate
Every choice was ours to make
