Like We Used To - Kevin Garrett

We don’t work like we used to no more

Got to so long before we could say goodbye

Saved our words for ourselves, a novel idea at the time

And I’m on fire, telling you I’ll be fine

And I don’t know who I’m writing this for

But I fear you’re not too far behind

Anything I say now will make it all feel a lie

But I’ve never been so damn alive

I won’t slip through the cracks if I don’t ever look back

And I won’t crash if I hear you’re alright

But all this time passing over us like I ain’t getting older

We’re too good for each other tonight

When you told me I wasn’t the same

I kept hoping you’d change your mind

We were both never warned and it’s a shame that we tried

When the real problem is how I couldn’t change mine

And we can handle the heat of a flame

But there is only ever so much light

There’s a calm in each storm

And there’s a fall in each fight

And we couldn’t find space in the lights

I won’t slip through the cracks if I don’t ever look back

And I won’t crash if I hear you’re alright

But all this time passing over us like I ain’t getting older

We’re too good for each other tonight
