We Had a Pact

The sky was hung with brazen stars, like Christmas lights on trees

You hung out too till the morning came, till the sun fell in on me

And all of our highs can't erase

Our lows in these darkening days

Ferris wheels and night time bars, we live on separate times

Our peers around us grew up so dull that we left our lives behind

The weight of your crystal heart

The train ride that sets us apart

And I held you for a moment

Lost "like tears in the rain"

And you slept upon the sofa

And I never slept again

(I'm tired)

You're making out in your fathers car, we're making out I'm fine

I saw you out at the show last night I just ignore you all the time

Mary, look what they've done to me

This world has turned on me

And now I drink the life I taste

The cracks in the walls disappear

The days turn to weeks, turn to years

And I held you for a moment

Lost "like tears in the rain"

And you slept upon the sofa

And I never slept again

(I'm tired)

And I never slept again

(I'm tired)

Well my mind goes blank and my eyes roll back

When I'm sober I don't know what to say

I'll text you miserable things when I'm out drinking

And then lay cringing all the following day

I want to disappear when we end up here

Conversation just becomes such an ache

We're only vulnerable to those who approach us

Until they realise there's no heart to break

And I held you for a moment

Lost "like tears in the rain"

And you slept upon the sofa

And I never slept again

(I'm tired)

And I held you for a moment

Lost "like tears in the rain"

And you slept upon the sofa

And I never slept again

(I'm tired)

Mary, look what they've done to me

This world has turned on me

And now I drink the life I taste
