lyrics

I saw a picture today
I think you were in it
But it's been so long
It felt like the beginning
We were young
And hadn't flown away

I tried to call you today
To see how you're doing
But now the pauses get longer
The more that we're moving
It's so hard
Feeling foundations decay

I'd like to say we've just lost our way but it might be more than that
I don't know who you are anymore so I'll just look back

When we used to check in
Before we were aging
I knew what you were thinking
You'd finish what I was saying
But no more
When did it all go astray?

Said we'd never be like them
What we had was much different
But what a cliche we are now
So unintentionally distant
Shouldn't have ended up like this
But just know that I miss it
So much

I'd like to think that we're still high
And we've just lost the buzz
And if we all moved back home
It could be just like it was
But no matter how we try
Things can never be the same again

Now I hear that you're married
I hear you've got a few kids
And you've even got a house like the one we grew up in
I'm so lost
But look at all that we became
