Seven billion hearts are beating
Tapping out a tempo in a round
Don't put the weight of years upon me
In fifty we'll be ashes in the ground
Distance and time are motherfuckers
Distance and time will do us in
But there are things that last forever
Sewn into the wrinkles in our skin
So I keep a watchful set of eyes for you
Should you ever feel like showing
I keep a chorus set aside for you
Should you ever feel like singing
Cuz I wanna play
I want the playback
Somehow respect became the silence
And all the love became a weight
We fled the scene of our surrender
Packed up our pride before it got too late
I'm burning up and you are frozen
I'm sleeping in and you are tired
But we stood steadfast with what was chosen
Oh no, we never gave in to desire
Still, I keep a watchful set of eyes for you
Should you ever feel like showing
I keep a chorus set aside for you
Should you ever feel like singing
Cuz I wanna play, uh oh
I want the playback
So it's easy to say we fought a good, clean fight
I'll ship you my blankets for the cold, cold nights
Be my Rosebud in the fire
The broken bridge to Neverland
I'll be your Ruxpin in the attic
Playing back what slipped between your hands
What slipped between your hands?
