You and me, we used to be together
Everyday together, always
I really feel that I’m losin’ my bestfriend
I can’t believe this could be the end
It looks as though you’re lettin’ go
And if it’s real, well, I don’t want to know
Don’t speak, I know just what you’re sayin’
So please stop explainin’, don’t tell me ‘cause it hurts
Don’t speak, I know just what you’re thinkin’
I don’t need your reasons don’t tell me ‘cause it hurts
Our memories, well, they can be invitin’
But some are altogether mighty frightening
As we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands, I sit and cry
Don’t speak, I know just what you’re sayin’
So please stop explainin’, don’t tell me ‘cause it hurts
Don’t speak, I know just what you’re thinkin’
And I don’t need your reasons don’t tell me ‘cause it hurts
It’s all ending, I gotta stop pretendin’
Who we are
You and me, I can see us dyin’
Are we?
