Late night, alone

With my gin and tonic

I asked, too much

I guess it's ironic

You're the frame, the structure

If I could paint by numbers

Maybe then we could be, more what I wanna be

You're the code, the system

But we're treating, the symptom

Trying to break it in, but it's not working cause

I swear you're almost perfect

Still chasing other versions of

What I want in my life, I can't lie

You were the archetype

(You were the archetype)

Chasing (chasing), shadows (shadows)

If I'm being honest (if I'm being honest)

Won't fake (won't fake), this love (this love)

Won't break a promise (won't break a promise)

Glitches in the connection

Maybe we're shorting out

Are you just my projection, are we

Just too close to it now? Cause

I swear you're almost perfect

Still chasing other versions of

What I want in my life, I can't lie

You were the archetype

That magic touch we're missing

Can't fight my premonitions of

What I want in my life, I can't lie

You were the archetype

You were the archetype

You were the archetype

You're the frame, the structure

If I could paint by numbers

Maybe then we could be, more what I wanna be

You're the code, the system

But we're treating, the symptom

Trying to break it in, but it's not working cause

I swear you're almost perfect

Still chasing other versions of

What I want in my life, I can't lie

You were the archetype

That magic touch we're missing

Can't fight my premonitions of

What I want in my life, I can't lie

You were the archetype

You were the archetype

You were the archetype
