lyrics

She always told me
I was condescending
Just to let that
Be all we ever had

Drop our heads
Below the clouds
You’ve been looking around
We were promised so much more
Crumpled papers line the floor

Left to wander yet again
Nothing more than just a trend
Write the rulebook as we go
This is all we’ve ever known
All we’ve ever known

She always told me
I was condescending
Just to let that
Be all we ever had

I couldn’t tell her
I was not pretending
When I called back
Go on and call me back

No this is not
What we were told
Not the promises I sold
As I gave it all away
Wish I’d known it yesterday

Deserving more than we decide
Assumptions on which we rely
In the end it came to this
Ending in a fractured split

She always told me
I was condescending
Just to let that
Be all we ever had

I couldn’t tell her
I was not pretending
When I called back
Go on and call me back

Why don’t you call me back
Well this could never last

She always told me
I was condescending
Just to let that
Be all we ever had

I couldn’t tell her
I was not pretending
When I called back
Go on and call me back

She always told me
I was condescending
Just to let that
Be all we ever had

I couldn’t tell her
I was not pretending
When I called back
Go on and call me back

She always told me
I was condescending
Just to let that
Be all we ever had

I couldn’t tell her
I was not pretending
When I called back
Go on and call me back
