The day we leave feels just like the day we met
Two strangers on the corner of Never and Meant
Two stories that seem intertwined from the start
For so long you forget they were written apart
And the first time they don't match - well, nothing is perfect
Chalk it up to different histories
Never thinking that your plans aren't the same for me
It's time to go, outside our lives are waiting
Fear takes hold, what's this mistake we're making?
But we both know that some stories have to close
So take good care and we'll stay in touch
The day we leave is exactly the way it should feel
Heavy and bright, humid and far too still
A silence that desperately aches for reprieve
But everything's stagnant: the air and the leaves
We're making decisions we both know we need
And maybe you've got the same questions as me
But it's time to go, outside our lives are waiting
Fear takes hold, what's this mistake we're making?
But we both know that some stories have to close
So take good care and we'll stay in touch
All of our boxes in the hall
It's a miracle we could split it all
Four rooms with sixteen empty walls
Someone else's life by nightfall
So lock the door, and we'll walk away together
Turn once more, look back at where we planed forever
We both know that our story's about to close
And just because it's good, it doesn't mean it's right
It's time to go, outside our lives are waiting
Fear takes hold, what's this mistake we're making?
And we both know that our story's about to close
So take good care and we'll stay in touch
