[Verse 1]
Did you see him?
Did you see that look he gave
Now it's over
And I lost the friends I made, for you
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep moving on
I'm out here on my own
I've been thinking so
I must be feeling strong
There's nothing, nothing there for me
[Chorus]
Oh my my my, now this life's slipping by
I'm seeing statues
Oh my my my, like we're frozen in time
I'm seeing statues, now
Oh my my my, now this life's slipping by
I'm seeing statues, and there's nothing there for me
One more line, then the sea turned to ice
And we were statues, now
And there's nothing there for me
(There's nothing left)
[Verse 2]
Did you notice?
Did you notice things had changed
(Did you notice things had changed)
Now it's over
And I've realised your way
[Chorus]
Oh my my my, now this life's slipping by
I'm seeing statues, and there's nothing there for me
One more line, then the sea turned to ice
And we were statues, now
And there's nothing there for me
[Post-Chorus]
So many late nights and mornings
They were wasted, in every single way
I really miss us, just talking
But if I heard you now, heard you now
I'd turn the other way
[Bridge]
It's hard to navigate
The situations that we hate
It's the way it's got to be
You'd do the same if you were me
Nothing there for me
Nothing there for me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Oh my my my, now this life's slipping by
I'm seeing statues
One more line, then the sea turned to ice
And we were statues, now
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh my my my, now this life's slipping by
I'm seeing statues
One more line, then the sea turned to ice
And we were statues, now
And there's nothing there for me
