[Verse 1]
The city is sleepin', but I'm still awake
I'm dreamin', I'm thinkin'
What happened today, is it right?
I fold into the night
The flashbacks, the pictures
The letters and songs
The memories, the heart that you carved on the wall
It's a shame
Now that nothing's the same
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now the bridges are burned
And we're lost in the wind
It's time that we sink or swim
[Chorus]
What about you?
What about me?
What about fairy tale endings?
Were you just pretending to be?
I'm wondering
What if we tried?
What if I cried?
What if it's better tomorrow?
What if I followed your eyes?
I'm wondering
What about me?
[Verse 2]
You said it, you meant it
You hung up the phone
The talking in circles, it set it in stone
You were gone
We were wrong all along
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now the past is the past
And the bruises may fade
These scars are here to stay
[Chorus]
What about you?
What about me?
What about fairy tale endings?
Were you just pretending to be?
I'm wondering
What if we tried?
What if I cried?
What if it's better tomorrow?
What if I followed your eyes?
I'm wondering
What about me?
[Bridge]
Stay away, you'll fade away
I'm not afraid anymore
[Breakdown]
What about you?
What about me?
What about fairy tale endings?
Were you just pretending to be?
I'm wondering
[Chorus]
What if we tried?
What if I cried?
What if it's better tomorrow?
What if I followed your eyes?
I'm wondering
What about me?
[Outro]
The city is sleepin', but I'm still awake
(What about me?)
I'm dreamin', I'm thinkin'
What happened today, is it right?
(What about me?)
