Casual Conversation

You know I don’t wanna say it
That night when we both declared it
I don’t think we understood the underlying implications
of such a casual conversation

I know now I should have told you then
When I first started to fit the pieces in
But you and I we aren’t the type to talk like this
Haven’t you ever wondered why that is?

Stay up late
Stand up straight
For beneath this weight
Uncover faith in fate

We should have seen this coming
There were warning signs all over it
We weren’t going to make the same mistakes they did
They always said we weren’t those kinds of kids

I know now I should have told you then
When I first started to fit the pieces in

Stay up late (What’s at stake)
Stand up straight (Lies in this wake)
For beneath this weight (All that remains)
Uncover faith in fate (Ruins to guide the shape)
