Lyrics
we’re never going to get it right,
it's just too easy to get it wrong
but if we stand to such great heights
then life will imitate song
so come with me instead
your hand in mine,
we run full-speed ahead
ideally aligned
Chasing whatever,
too late to be clever,
everybody knows us --
[prechorus]
we’re the coldest
(bright-eyed and soulless)
dodging the future
(cuz the present still owes us)
[chorus]
hopelessly hoping
crashed for a moment
busted wide open
laid on the pavement
(this is the closest)
we've ever been to atonement
(promised to change)
but stayed the same
and that's okay,
we didn't want to anyway
(we didn't want to anyway)
[Verse 2]
we've got a funny way
of fucking it all up
laughin' too much
running out of luck
I’m in lesbians with you —
and that’s my truth
awkward and honest
like our wasted youth
chocolate and nougat
you’re my baby ruth
I still choose you —
Pikachu
[prechorus]
we’re the coldest
(bright-eyed and soulless)
dodging the future
(cuz the present still owes us)
[chorus]
hopelessly hoping
crashed for a moment
busted wide open
laid on the pavement
(this is the closest)
we've ever been to atonement
(promised to change)
but stayed the same
and that's okay,
we didn't want to anyway
(we didn't want to anyway)
[outro]
walk around town like we're on the beat
shoes scuffed up on the dead-end streets
we’re a little too reckless, a little too loud
a little too late — lost in the crowd
