Verse 1:
You were there at the door
You said, "I don't know how to say this
But I want more
I don't know how you're gonna take this"
And my mind went sore
And my body went weightless
I couldn't find the floor
I couldn't find the floor
Chorus:
And you walked away
And I saw fireworks imploding frame by frame
Like watching a movie in slow motion from miles away
Up like a rocket ship ascends, it's drifting up into space
And I'm running out of oxygen
Verse 2:
We can't go back to the first
Losing stories like leap year
With fake smiles and words
Just a ghost left to be near
I'm not sure how this works
What do you want me to say, dear?
All I know is it hurts
All I know is it hurts
Chorus:
And you walked away
And I saw fireworks imploding frame by frame
Like watching a movie in slow motion from miles away
Up like a rocket ship ascends, it's drifting up into space
And I'm running out of oxygen
Bridge:
I'm drifting out of the hemisphere
So far away
All of the memories disappear
And start to fade
Chorus:
And you walked away
And I saw fireworks imploding frame by frame
Like watching a movie in slow motion, from miles away
Up like a rocket ship ascends, it's drifting up into space
And I'm running out of oxygen
