If Ever We Come Back

If Ever We Come Back

---

if ever we come back

just don’t expect me / to hold my breath
a saner man would learn to breathe you out

still hanging on / despite myself
the status quo is all I know
and it’s hard to let it go

what if we live our lives
like we recognize there’s nothing left to hide
we always remember every lie

what if we live our lives
like we did before when time was on our side
if ever we come back, if ever we try

i won’t get caught up / in this endless game
in better times i’d learn to take control

you want someone to listen / someone to blame
the status quo is coming round
and it’s trying to take us down

what if we live our lives
with the simple fact we’ve nowhere left to hide
and always remember every lie

what if we live our lives
like we did before the world was set on fire
if ever we come back, if ever we try

there’s nowhere left to hide

what if we live our lives
like forgotten friends with nothing left to hide
we only remember every lie

what if we live our lives
like we did before when time was on our side
if ever we come back, if ever we try
