We used to chase
We used to chase away the pain
Right through the pressure
Through the pressure of the pace
You were the highlight
Still the highlight of my day
And the day you waved goodbye I told you
Make peace with your mind
I hope you tried
But your patience was so thin
Just like my light
Until all our sins we would give in
But still we tried
And day to day we used to say
The ghost’s silence could prove that without him we could do
We were the sun and the sea
But most of all we were you and me
We were nothing
Just nothing to everyone
We used to smoke
And sit and choke away the pain
But in this pleasant
In such a pleasant kind of way
You were the highlight
Still the highlight of my day
And the day you waved goodbye you said to try and be alright
And although I tried
My promise it went thin
Just like my light
Until all my sins I would give in
But still I tried
And day to day I used to pray but ghost’s answers are mute
He is just like you
We were the sun and the sea
But most of all we were you and me
We were nothing
Just nothing to everyone
We were the moon and the stars
But after all you were still who you are
We weren’t failing or fooling or trying not to fall
We were just trailing and waiting for everything to crumble
