It was...
[Verse 1]
I was the perfect human
But I drifted
Hearts, they’re breaking every day
But somehow this feels different
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I’m getting tired of staying awake
Burning out slowly
You keep on looking at me like you don’t even know me
[Chorus]
You’re a boy, and I’m a girl
Shadows are long and distant
Do you remember late nights?
And only the moon was watching
Under the burning bridges
We said we were going places
You were a boy, and I, a girl
But now it’s not that simple
[Verse 2]
Why are we keeping secrets and hiding others?
Why are we turning corners and changing colours?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I’m swimming underneath the ice
Fading out slowly
I’m looking from the highest heights
You’re right below me
[Chorus]
You’re a boy, and I’m a girl
Shadows are long and distant
Do you remember late nights?
And only the moon was watching
Under the burning bridges
We said we were going places
You were a boy, and I, a girl
But now it’s not that simple
[Instrumental Bridge}
[Chorus]
You’re a boy, and I’m a girl
Shadows are long and distant
Do you remember late nights?
And only the moon was watching
Under the burning bridges
We said we were going places
You were a boy, and I, a girl
But now it’s not that simple
