Like We Used To

We don’t work like we used to no more
Got to so long before we could say goodbye
Saved our words for ourselves, a novel idea at the time
And I’m on fire, telling you I’ll be fine
And I don’t know who I’m writing this for
But I fear you’re not too far behind
Anything I say now will make it all feel a lie
But I’ve never been so damn alive
I won’t slip through the cracks if I don’t ever look back
And I won’t crash if I hear you’re alright
But all this time passing over us like I ain’t getting older
We’re too good for each other tonight
When you told me I wasn’t the same
I kept hoping you’d change your mind
We were both never warned and it’s a shame that we tried
When the real problem is how I couldn’t change mine
And we can handle the heat of a flame
But there is only ever so much light
There’s a calm in each storm
And there’s a fall in each fight
And we couldn’t find space in the lights
I won’t slip through the cracks if I don’t ever look back
And I won’t crash if I hear you’re alright
But all this time passing over us like I ain’t getting older
We’re too good for each other tonight
