Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Thought you said you were in love, so why the sad face?
I don't ask for much, just that you meet me halfway
Faith is not enough to float above a bad wave
We're gonna drown, we're going down
And you're letting this fade
[PreChorus]
Thank your lucky stars, I'm creative
All this precious life I wasted
Coming up with ways to save us
But it might be way too late for that
[Chorus]
If you really care
Then why am I feeling you just slipping through my hands?
If you're really there
Then why can I walk right through ya?
Talking to a dead man
[Verse 2]
I got no excuse for thinking I could fix ya
You leave me hanging just 'cause you don't get the picture
No matter how nice I paint it
Don't change
No matter the way I frame it
You're too late
There's no easy way to say it
You're about to lose me now
[PreChorus]
Thank your lucky stars, I'm creative
All this precious life I wasted
Coming up with ways to save us
But it might be way too late for that
[Chorus]
If you really care
Then why am I feeling you just slipping through my hands?
If you're really there
Then why can I walk right through ya?
Talking to a dead man
[Bridge]
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da, t-t-talking to a dead man
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da, t-t-talking to a dead man
[Chorus]
If you really care
Then why am I feeling you just slipping through my hands?
If you're really there
Then why can I walk right through ya?
Talking to a dead man
[Outro]
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da, t-t-talking to a dead man
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da, t-t-talking to a dead man
