As it's all slipping away from me
you're the only one
in an unforeseen reality
you're the only one
am I headed for catastrophe
or the morning sun?
cuz I know you're already gone
and you're the only one, only one

it's only gotten colder
in the room we said a flame
would always burn
it's been weighing heavy
on your conscience and your shoulders
but you're silent, mortified by that point
of no return (no return)

(why delay the satisfaction baby?
you know what you want)
you've been waking up in purgatory
7 weeks too long
(instead of dealing with the
cause you just keep
hiding every symptom)
and it's sad to see you suffer slow,
so I'll let you go

As it's all slipping away from me
you're the only one
in an unforeseen reality
you're the only one
am I headed for catastrophe
or the morning sun?
cuz I know you're already gone
and you're the only one, only one

wouldn't be real
if it weren't painful (painful)
or a height if it weren't destined
for a crash
though we've never been here before,
consider it alchemy (alchemy)
to take two separate roads, turn it to gold,
and back again so easily (baby)

(though it's hard to put a finger on it,
hard to comprehend)
you don't owe no one an explanation
to be alone again
(trust your logic over altruism,
feelings over virtue)
and you'll find that perfect situation,
the way I met you

As it's all slipping away from me
you're the only one
in an unforeseen reality
you're the only one (you're the only one)
am I headed for catastrophe
or the morning sun?
cuz I know you're already gone
and you're the only one, only one

As it's all slipping away from me
you're the only one
(I'll stop blaming myself)
in an unforeseen reality
you're the only one
(and hand the keys to our destiny)
am I headed for catastrophe
or the morning sun?
(baby you're already gone)
cuz I know you're already gone
and you're the only one, only one
