[Intro]

Life is just going so quickly, I can’t catch it

I don't think anyone can


[Verse 1]

I met the devil in the hills last night

I was driving by myself, alone

He said, "Boy, what you running from?"

I said, "I don't know"

I don't know if it was a better time

But girl, we were giants then

Endless nights, we were infinite (So, terrified, I guess)

Summer's end would mean the death of us


[Chorus]

But summer past, and we grew up

And all of our paths, they split up

And I haven't seen your face or heard your voice in so long

So, so long

We had a good run, it's over now

(No, I'm not sad about it, but, I'm just, it's weird)


[Verse 2]

Yeah, lying on the grass, talk is so old

Living under Orion, we grew so bold

Lying on our days, we were outlaws

Our loss, but

Catch me if you can, never wiped out

Tryin' to catch a wave, tryin' to break out

I guess I didn't know

And now I'm gone

But it don't hurt me anymore

That's just the way it goes

Yeah, I should've known

But, I heard you talking through the walls late last night

"There are no ends, just grays and half-lives" (Left me in pieces)

Half-time (And I heard it), it's alright (And I heard it)


[Chorus]

That summer past, and we grew up

And all of our plans, they split us up

And I haven't seen your face or heard your voice in so long

So, so long

We had a good run, it's over now


[Interlude]

So, please, don't fade me out

So, please, don't fade me out

So, please, don't lose me now

I heard the words that you never said

Smokescreen from a cigarette

Exhale, we can never be what's in our heads

(So, please, don't fade me out)

Elevation doesn't matter now, it's straight ahead

Sending shivers down my spine, life pirouettes

It's cool, we're used to losing real friends

Only ever feeling it in retrospect

(So, please, don’t lose me now)

And we were really breathing, not silhouettes

Maybe in another dream this would never end


[Outro]

'Cause everything is not alright

And we are falling

But that's just life

Without some lows, there is no highs

And everything will be okay

Though we are all hurting

'Cause time flies fast

And you know, no pain is forever

Ever, forever

(I don't think, I'm not saying you should

Be really cautious and shit, I'm, quite the opposite

Just like it's, everything is so, I mean

Expecting anything to last forever is ridiculous isn't it?

I think that's ridiculous

You think that's ridiculous?

Yeah, of course everything lasts forever)
