Unaware that something was in the air
Floating around us and slowly surrounding us whole
Was it a second, a day or a year
When you began to disappear
Do you remember the moment
You started to know it was done
With a whimper, not a bang
Not a lion, but a lamb
We just withered and died, like a lily outside in the cold
And through Rome wasn't built in a day
It longer still to decay
Slowly but surely, your brain it just blurred me away
♪
The chains were strained, and slowly your passion waned
We once talked all night, now we don't even fight anymore
At first I thought you needed space
But I was already being erased
The sole resolution, a foregone conclusion, it's done
♪
Aim your soul, follow where you must go
And I'll follow mine through the tangle of vines in the night
♪
So this is the way that it ends
A half-hearted promise to always be friends
A glance at the floor, then you walk out the door to your life
