She liked for me who she wanted me to be

Using TV screens and DVDs

To try and ease the creaks between these dreams

We sold to each other with some free deceit

Please keep the receipt

I know that you're really not who you try to be, I guess

I fell in what I thought was love

To a person whose truth was a lie to me

And I believe shit wasn't always like this

So much distance between us, now I guess

My thoughts finally have enough room to digress

And digest the time spent with you in my head

Maybe I'm fuckin' crazy, man

I've never been with a better person

But I gave my heart for love

And in return, I got sent the synthetic version

Yeah, am I an asshole for making this?

Truth is, this ain't a breakup song

This a makeup song, taken way too long

Don't wanna play or move on, I wanna stay with you long

Yeah, yeah

Wanna stay with you long

Yeah

After one year, we're more of strangers than ever

We've grown to be stranger together

Like two randomers who take the bus everyday

And the only conversation is like statin' the weather

Every date we had was almost a first date

But we already stolen second and third base

I met you like nine-thousand times now

And I found that I've drowned in your eyes so many times now

That I learned how to breathe underwater

But I ain't gone for a swim in a while now

Shit changed, and I'm switchin' my style now

No MTV bullshit, I ain't Wild 'N Out

Writin' it all out, seeing my thoughts just fall out

Wanna call out, but I- but I gotta drop out

Yeah

Do you remember how those sparks we imagined

Turned to shit burnin' brighter than some stars everlastin'?

But all I see is the ashes

A cremated love, ain't no need for a casket

So please just hand me a few matches

I've seen it resurrect before like Jesus' magic

But all I see is the ashes

A cremated love, ain't no need for a casket

Found a new girl from a new world

And I know that is startin' nice

And just because it's part of life doesn't mean that it ain't hard to bite

Cliché while I'm followin' the archetype

Turnin' on the lights in the dark of night

Tryna make it all alright, for some reason, it ain't hard to write

I didn't even get to call her twice

I never even tried to start a fight, yeah

Disregard the dreams that I had

Mixin' all with the scenes with the bad, I can't even see what we had

All I know is that it's not, "What piece in the trash?"

It's the peace in the trash, yeah

Do you remember how those sparks we imagined

Turned to shit burnin' brighter than some stars everlastin'?

But all I see is the ashes

A cremated love, ain't no need for a casket

Yeah

A cremated love

Ain't no need for a casket

Yeah
