Lets go back to the start to where it began
When you took my heart in the palm of your hand
But you took it away and now all thats left

This only lasts because we both know it will never last long
So we keep alive all of the lies that we both know are wrong
But its alright if it helps us fall asleep at night
But in the end were both sleeping all alone again
And I know this is not enough, nothing is what we both dreamed of
When we dreamed and planned our lives out on the basement couch
