Can’t Come Back
[Verse 1]
Let's focus
On the story the way it unfolded
Like the laundry we aired then we coped with
There's not much left to spare if it's broken
But there's a lot written down
[Verse 2]
Please show me
How I'm not another verse in your poem
I don't have to be awake to decode it
'Cause the fabric's only thread til' you sew it
And there's a lot laying around
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't wanna waste your time
Running through the back of my mind
This happens every night
I keep on saying I'm fine
But
[Chorus]
Days get longer, oh, the farther I count
While my dreams are hardly drowning you out
And I swear, we can't fix something we cannot figure out
But I'll know it, and you'll know it
When it all settles down
But we can't come back now
[Verse 3]
Don't bother
Every now and again, I get caught up
Are we done at the end of this bottle?
I'll know I'm close when my friends call it a problem
And that's when I'll come around
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't wanna waste your time
Running through the back of your mind
This happens every night
I keep on saying I'm fine
But
[Chorus]
Days get longer, oh, the farther I count
While my dreams are hardly drowning you out
And I swear, we can't fix something we cannot figure out
But I'll know it, and you'll know it
When it all settles down
But we can't come back now
[Post-Chorus]
We can't come back now
We can't come back now
(It was you, it was you)
We can't come back now
We can't come back now
(And that's when, when I woke up)
[Outro]
(Show me now)
We can't come back now
(Show me now)
We can't come back now
(Show me now)
We can't come back now
