lyrics

you are not alone
i have seen that darkness too
and though mine isn’t yours
the pain it felt the same
though differently it came

i don’t think that we ever chose
to play this game or to be anybody
now that we’re here i know
we can make the best of what we’ve got

temporary
my heart it wants forever and ever
it’s hard, but necessary that
nothing stays the same
so nothing stays the same

i may have lost my faith
you may still have yours
both of us will change
hovering back and forth

is it a cosmic trick?!
to get me feeling better and better
if that’s the joke
maybe i’d like to shake your hand
if you ditch the smoke and mirrors
