Flatlined

Old friend

You coward

Can I raise my head to see?

This end game

Is a tsunami

Rejection crashes over me

She said I'd see you in the end

My perfect stranger

My perfect friend

Sucker punch

And I'm rolling

Through this town we pounded street by street

I'm heart sick

On the pavement

Knowing this is the last time we'll meet

She said I'd see you in the end

My perfect stranger

My perfect friend

But I knew I'd see you through the eyes

Of someone who loves you

But has to say goodbye

So don't turn around

I've hit the ground

Under these fading, city lights

Or walk with me

To A & E

I'm feeling flatlined tonight

And just like that

I can feel the grief

Not for you, not for me

But the life we were supposed to lead

The distance between us has grown

With everything you should have said

And everything I shouldn't have

And I look down at my feet

And they're still just my feet

Nobody else in the world notices the change but me

But even standing right there you're gone

Too far for me to reach

It's like I'm 12 again and I'm listening to The Streets

I can feel my heart breaking beneath my feet

And it's eat, sleep, flatline, repeat

So don't turn around

I've hit the ground

Under these fading city lights

Or walk with me

To A & E

Feeling flatlined tonight

Don't turn around

I've hit the ground

Under these fading city lights

Or walk with me

To A & E

Feeling flatlined tonight

Don't turn around

I've hit the ground

Under these fading city lights

Or walk with me

To A & E

Feeling flatlined tonight
