Over

It seems like the whole world
Knows much more than I can do
About how we’ve come this close
To the top title of the newspapers,
I’m running out of oxygen
Though you’re the one who talks
Saying I don’t even have a heart,
Saying I will die alone

As I sit in my silence
And you ask what’s going on
And I know I should answer
Though you’re already out of the door
As I’m running out of patience
And I’ve found a bunch of words
To help you notice all the symptoms
‘Cause I’m pretty sure

That we’re over, now,
May I call you a cab?
Say goodbye to this house
And don’t forget to forget.
We’re over, now,
You can keep all the rings,
I’ll forget everything
And it’ll take me a week.

You picked me up and let me down
Like a random puzzle piece
And please just stop your crying
‘Cause I’m running out of beers
And we witnessed the empire fall
And bury us alive
Though the bliss was long gone
And I still can’t feel my lungs.

You’re still upon my top shelf
But at least you cannot talk:
I have saved this yellowed picture
For a reason I forgot
And you’re still constantly relying
On the fact that that was love
But it’s hard to keep on smiling,
Maybe ‘cause that wasn’t fun,

See, we’re over, now,
Keep your head on your neck,
Maybe one day we’ll meet again
If I’m sent back to hell,
We’re over, now,
And you can spare me this play,
Tell your friends I’m a loser,
I’ll pretend that I care.

Save your tears for tomorrows,
Save your words for a novel,
All the shit that we did
Won’t go down in history

Cause we’re over, now,
Although the memories stay
Yet you can’t figure it out,
There’s not a single way back

‘Cause we’re over, now,
Save me a place in your prayers,
You’ll find me shoveling dirt
Digging your shallow grave.
