The Curse of Perfect Days

And you knew exactly when, you gave your heart and all of it Without a thought of what you meant, you knew you couldn't live without this So make your excuses now, that time has stolen all that you've earned Make your excuses now, that time has stolen her Time has stolen her Tell me that I'm a fool That I've exaggerated the situation 'Cause I've never been scared like this Of losing more than I have to give It's so unfair I believed I could handle this I swore I could fix everything But I told myself lies all of these years I told myself lies, all of these years I told myself lies, all of these years The fear that moves in and stays here The words that replay in your ears The grip that you held has weakened Was the life that was yours forsaken But I can't take my eyes off of you And we were still so cool Our bodies smooth and young (bodies smooth and young) The dreams of getting older Were never supposed to come (were never supposed to come) The curse of perfect days You forget just what you've made (forget just what you've made) And you find yourself just praying For something more than this life Something more than this life We wait for the doctors, to prescribe their medicines And hold their bad news, as if later it will make more sense But I've never been scared like this (It's so unfair) Just waiting for my strength to give (I thought I could handle this) But this is the rock, I broke myself against (I swore I could fix anything) We believed we'd have our way (And we did, and we did) The memories we have made (Everyday was the best day of my life) I could never repay what I owe (Or replace the book we wrote) Even though I read the ending before the start I would have never changed a single part Tell me I'm a fool, tell me I'm just scared Say I'm such a drama queen, it's not even fair And let me see your eyes, the love that's right behind And I'll promise you That it will never die It will never die And we were still so cool Our bodies smooth and young The dreams of getting older Were never supposed to come The curse of perfect days You forget just what you've made And you find yourself just praying For something more than this life I want so much more than this life
