How Do We Stay In Love?

[Verse 1]

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, hmm

Thought we were made of stone, that we would never fall

But still our castles broke into a thousand pieces

[Chorus]

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)

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus]

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)

[Post-Chorus]

(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 in love?

[Bridge]

Walking down these streets, I'm freezing

All our footsteps disappearing

Some places are built for leaving, but

It's like we were never here

[Chorus]

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?
