Insolvent Hearts

lyrics

It's been so long I can't tell when it all started I could tell you how I broke it though It happened in an instant, without you knowing Thinking about it now makes me feel quite low

I can't tell if I find it funny or sad That I threw out our past the moment we met Youth sees life through a lens that doesn't fit And I clearly couldn't see our future with it

We had something nice, something built around ideas Yet it was standing on a shallow ground of fragile minds And no matter how strong was our source material There was no chance it survived young insolvent hearts

I can't tell if I find it funny or sad That I threw out our past the moment we met Youth sees life through a lens that doesn't fit And I clearly couldn't see our future with it

Over two decades later I see you through the glass I hear you in the distance, not alone anymore It stings and makes me wonder if I just screwed up It doesn't matter though, you have someone to live for

I think I was too young And saw life from a perspective Of imaginary high ground Staying too selective We're still talking though After all this time I can't tell if you don't know Or just play it very nice I can see you took my words And built the strongest image I'm so glad that it helped you Even though I'm no longer in it

I can't tell if I find it funny or sad That I threw out our past the moment we met Youth sees life through a lens that doesn't fit And I clearly couldn't see our future with it

I clearly couldn't see our future with it
