Decline Of A Midwestern Civilization

So I stayed the night hoping you and I

Would fix this shit, sorry can I get it right

But the lights are off,

And I had my doubts she can't be gone

Using photographs

We were over exposed when the shutter snaps

We were the best damn actors imitating our past (we won't last)

Drowning in the midwest, so let the water fill your lungs

And make sure you do your best

Obtain oxygen to make the last

Stories told, lives are sold,

We can't hold everything I promised you

It was a long shot and I missed in the dark

Come on, let's forget how to breathe

It's the only way we used to be

So I stayed the night hoping you and I

Would fix this shit, sorry can I get it right

But the lights are off,

And I had my doubts she can't be gone

All this time we cross each other's boundry lines

(Unsure of what side, unsure of what lines)

We were fighting on

What can I say? I was vulnerable at the way

(And you're crazy) Driving me crazy

What can I say? We were determined to make it out

(And you're crazy) Driving me crazy

Stories told, lives are sold,

We can't hold everything I promised you

Everything I promised you

So come on, let's forget how to breathe

So I stayed the night hoping you and I

Would fix this shit, sorry can I get it right

But the lights are off,

And I had my doubts

Oh no, she can't be gone

And all this time we cross each others boundry lines

(Unsure of what side, unsure of what lines)

We were fighting on
