If I tell you that I was searching for the tide
Unaccompanied, all my memories left behind
Please don't get angry, though what I say could hurt
Yet all those moments, seem nothing in the dust
But tonight, why can't we talk
About things that don't matter
Tonight, why can't we be friends
Tonight, why can't we talk
About things that don't matter
For a while
I'm in free fall, and I've never felt so scared
I wouldn't blame it all, but I don't think you heard
Now I'm tired of all the tales that I tell
Is it worth it, when I seldom tell them well
But tonight, why can't we talk
About things that don't matter
Tonight, why can't we be friends
Tonight, why can't we talk
About things that don't matter
For a while
