I don’t want to cause you trouble
My intentions were quite clear
They say we want what we can’t have
And if I sound too cavalier
It’s cause my thoughts are so transparent
I only wanted to hold on
She said, “It’s not for real, just don’t look back
Because the best has yet to come.”

And the sadness came around again
Can you hear my voice tonight?
As I scream out on these rooftops
Can you feel me every time?
It’s kind of how God created Adam
And then created Eve
A little like how we were forgotten
A little like how we were deceived

I don’t want to make you nervous
Walking down one sided streets
But as I walk around I’m finding
I can’t escape familiar scenes
It’s cause my thoughts are so aesthetic
I only wanted just to feel
She said, “It’s not the same, and it never was
Because the moment’s not for real.”

And the sadness came around again
Can you hear my voice tonight?
As I scream out on these rooftops
Can you feel me every time?
It’s kind of how God created Adam
And then created Eve
A little like how we were forgotten
A little like how we used to be
