[Verse 1]
Heart on my sleeve, stitched up with lies,
Tears dried quicker than the ink when it dries.
Promises whispered, they cracked like glass,
Shadows in the mirror, a love that won’t last.
Flicker of a flame, now it’s smoke in the sky,
Tried to hold forever, but it slipped, said goodbye.
[Prechorus]
Ran from the truth, it was biting my heels,
Chasing a dream, but the pain always feels.
[Chorus]
Nothing lasts forever, baby, not even this,
Kisses turn to echoes, love fades to abyss.
Tried to hold the moment, it slipped through my hands,
Nothing lasts forever—no love, no plans.
[Verse 2]
Lipstick smudges on a half-empty glass,
Memories rewind, but they don’t ever last.
Futures we painted, all the colors turned gray,
The clock’s hands laughing, ticking love away.
Words in the wind, scattered ashes of hope,
Tied up in a knot, but we frayed the rope.
[Chorus]
Nothing lasts forever, baby, not even this,
Kisses turn to echoes, love fades to abyss.
Tried to hold the moment, it slipped through my hands,
Nothing lasts forever—no love, no plans.
[Bridge]
Build a house of cards, wind tore it apart,
Left me in the rubble, picking up my heart.
Every "always" whispered just a fleeting sound,
Forever’s just a circle, spinning round and round.
