[Verse 1]

Dear sweet love I know you’re happy

And you’re begging me to stay

Well I hope that you’ll forgive me

I can’t let it be this way

I’m no more than a broken ending

A sweet dream to make you numb

When you realized that you loved me

What were you running from?

[Chours]

And I know we’re overrated

So don’t lose yourself in time

I just thought you’d be okay and

I’m prepared to say goodbye

I know that your world is changing

And mine’s dead, ash from the sky

Believe me I’ll be okay and

I’ll be your precious little lie

[Verse 2]

Dear sweet love this isn’t easy

And I know you feel the same

Our footsteps have washed away and

So have the tears and shame

After all that we have been through

Tell me we’re better off this way

Cause I’m starting to resent this

I’ll still gladly take the blame

[Chorus]

And I know we’re overrated

So don’t lose yourself in time

I just thought you’d be okay and

I’m prepared to say goodbye

I know that your world is changing

And mine’s dead, ash from the sky

Believe me I’ll be okay and

I’ll be your precious little lie

[Bridge]

Maybe you can feel everything

Like your veins are strings

That pull the world towards everything you know

And what I can’t see, oh

This means to me

A happiness I’ll never let it go

A happiness I’ll never let it go

[Chorus]

And I know we’re overrated

So don’t lose yourself in time

I just thought you’d be okay and

I’m prepared to say goodbye

I know that your world is changing

And mine’s dead, ash from the sky

Believe me I’ll be okay and

I’ll be your precious little lie
