Thought that I would call you then I figured

Maybe I'll just tell the moonlight

That the tides, they all changed for the better

And I think I'm finally alright

That you'll marry someone who will never forget

The candles on your birthday

And who knows maybe I will find someone

Who won't ever ask me to change

We're both faultless in the aftermath

The faulty brakes, the deadly crash

Took some time, I did the math

And darling it

It was never gonna work out

We're both faultless in the fated facts

The pot calling the kettle black

Said some things, I take 'em back

Cause darling it

It was never gonna work out

We're off the hook now

Maybe one day I'll end up

Standing on the shoreline of your new life

And we'll both make small talk, smile, realize

That we both watched the sun rise

And all the pride, the anger

All the holding on for dear life will be gone

And I'll just say it's crazy that in the midst of all of it

We found our way home

We're both faultless in the aftermath

The faulty brakes, the deadly crash

Took some time, I did the math

And darling it

It was never gonna work out

We're both faultless in the fated facts

The pot calling the kettle black

Said some things, I take 'em back

Cause darling it

It was never gonna work out

We're off the hook now

Throwing out keys for the locks on the cage

Heavy like lockets I wore from a chain

Looking for something or someone to blame

It's okay

(We're off the hook)

We're both faultless in the aftermath

The faulty brakes, the deadly crash

Took some time, I did the math

And darling it

It was never gonna work out

(We're off the hook)

We're both faultless in the fated facts

The pot calling the kettle black

Said some things, I take 'em back

Cause darling it

It was never gonna work out

We're off the hook now
