Lyrics

We were young, We were in love
On top of the world at only 7 stories up
I had it all, you were everything
Fearless cuz together we could take on anything

But now I sit here on the ground
In the same place that you let me down
Pictures scattered all around
And no excuses to be found

How could you do this to me
I saw in you so many things
That no one else could see
We planned it perfectly but now it's through
What did you do and what about me

We were young, We were best friends
A celebrated life lived on needles and pens
An all the nights, we'd write and dream
Laugh until the sunrise while the
Neighbors banged and screamed

And now to walk in our own room
Feels like a cold and empty tomb
Why'd it have to end so soon
I hate that fucking afternoon

How could you do this to me
I saw in you all of the things
That no one else could see
A Fucked up reality and now it's through
What did you do and what about me

We shared our life, We shared our love
You are the one I can't stop thinking of
We shared our drugs, we shared our soul
So I could wake up to you lying here still and cold

We were young, We were in love
We were in love, We were in love

How could you do this to me
I saw in you all of the things
That no one else would see
Ending so tragically, and now it's through
what did you do, and all of our dreams
They won't come true
Because of you, yeah it's all because of you
And what about me
