Two kids out wandering,
kingdom between our streets
Highest I've ever been with two
feet on the pavement
Lost in a world we knew,
meanwhile, the cancer grew
But they were too scared to say
'cause we're too young to get it
Hmm, ah—ah—ah
Hmm
Thought we were made of stone,
that we would never fall
But, still, our castles broke
into a thousand pieces
It's nothing like they promised,
but how could we have known?
In a world gone up in smoke
How do we stay honest? How
do we not give up ?
How do we stay in love? Hmm
I haven't seen you since the
winter that I watched
The house you grew up in turn
into a prison
When your mother passed away,
angel in human skin
There were no words to say,
but fuck all our religions
It was nothing like they promised,
but how could we have known?
In a world gone up in smoke
How do we stay honest? How
do we not give up ?
How do we stay in love?
Hmm (it was nothing like
they—, nothing like they—)
How do we stay in love?
Hmm (how do we stay?
How do we stay? How do we stay?)
How do we stay in love? Mm
Walking down these streets, I'm freezing
All our footsteps, disappearing
Some places are built for leaving but
It's like we were nev
er here
It's nothing like they promised,
but how could we have known?
In a world gone up in smoke
How do we stay honest? How
do we not give up?
How do we stay in love?
