I thought that you could save me
From the things that I'd never seen
And you thought that I could save your soul
From the black hole in my backyard where we all used to daydream
But we were just kids then
I thought that you could show me the light
But when the power went out we watched the powerless die
I thought that you could save me from all of my ghosts
But now I know they'll never go
But we were just kids then
And nothing really matters to them
So I close my eyes, and I hold my breath, and it takes me home
To all my friends and everyone I've ever known
All we've ever been is all we'll ever be
And when the bombs start falling I hope you think of me
I know it might sound selfish but I think we both agree
The hardest things to lose are all the things we thought were free
All we've ever been is all we'll ever be
And when the bombs start falling I hope you think of me
I know it might sound selfish but I think we both agree
The hardest things to lose are all the things we thought were free
But we were just kids then
And nothing really matters to them
And all my friends think I should just forget her
Can I finally forget her when it all comes to an end
