I'm gonna leave the same way I came<br />
Up from the ashes, then I'm from the ashes<br />
If our house had stood here on this wood foundation<br />
Then you, you could've fooled me<br />
I admit I was a fool for your southern days<br />
<br />
One hundred and fifty degrees in the shade<br />
It wasn't an option to go back to my place<br />
No, I was put in my place<br />
<br />
And you, we lived in separate houses<br />
We have for all our lives<br />
It would've been nice to say<br />
It would've been nice to say<br />
I knew you<br />
<br />
When, oh, when will this sinking feeling<br />
Feel like man, that was ages ago<br />
<br />
I don't worry half as much as I did<br />
When I was an experiment, your resident tourniquet<br />
Life's not about your neck, wait, just what is it?<br />
<br />
I am the mantle and you're a painting<br />
Come, rest your frame on me<br />
I was a tower and you were an airplane<br />
We happened before we knew what was happening<br />
<br />
We lived in separate houses<br />
We have for all our lives<br />
It would've been nice to say<br />
It would've been nice to say<br />
<br />
When, oh when will this sinking feeling<br />
Feel like man, that was ages ago<br />
When, oh when will this sinking feeling<br />
Feel like man, that was ages ago<br />
<br />
Man, that was ages ago<br />
Man, that was ages ago<br />
<br />
We lived inside each other<br />
Such careless, lazy lovers<br />
Would've been nice to say<br />
Sure would've been nice to say<br />
<br />
When, oh when will this sinking feeling<br />
Feel like man, that was ages ago<br />
When, oh when will this sinking feeling<br />
Feel like man, that was ages ago<br />
<br />
Man, that was ages ago<br />
Man, that was ages ago<br />
Man, that was ages ago<br />
Man, that was ages ago<br />
Man, that was ages ago<br />
Man, that was ages ago
