The sun looked sweeter than ever
Right before you left the room
I never noticed the crack in the ceiling
Until after you left
Dancing down a slippery slope
Was safest for me right then
Because it kept me from looking back
To see the avalanche behind me
Tick tock, tick tock
I knew what it had meant
I only wish I'd heard
What you had said
The words I didn't pay attention to
The meanings that I had lost
The feeling like I had failed
All of these things
I did and didn't do
For you...
And now, there's no more you
Only me and my pain
We do make a great pair
The sun is setting now
And that crack is still there
But the air is colder now
Or maybe it's just me...
