lyrics

Thought we were flying like a hot air balloon
But we’re just dying in our living room

Don’t bury me yet, carry me on a little longer now
At the risk of repeating myself, I’ll think about you again
And how we’re gonna end

It’s like we’re lying awake outside of a dream
Where we’re halfway between a smile and a scream
If we could talk past the words that we don’t believe
Maybe we’d walk past the path that won’t set us free

Don’t bury me yet, carry me on a little longer now
At the risk of repeating myself, I’ll think about you again
And how it’s gonna end

Thought we’d be dying a slow death at our own hands
But now we’re learning to spread our own wings again

So don’t bury me yet, don’t carry me on and don’t you ever regret
At the risk of revealing myself, I’ll think about us again
And how it’ll never end
