[Verse 1]
Found our names on the back of a yearbook
Inside jokes in a language we don't speak
All those plans on the edge of a notebook
Half-drawn hearts
Every dream in the margins
[Pre-Chorus]
(M) Thought the fade-out meant it ended
(F) Thought the credits meant goodbye
(M) But the camera just was turning
(F) While we walked off out of frame that night
[Chorus]
Credits roll
Lights stay on
We are not the ending song
We are every quiet scene
After everyone has gone
Yeah
We messed up
We moved on
Still we hum that old theme strong
We’re not finished
Just moved on
Credits roll
Lights stay on
[Verse 2]
(F) Drove past school
Saw the rust on the goalposts
(M) Our old street's got a new coffee shop sign
(F) I’m still learning to talk to my parents
(M) I’m still late
But I show up this time
[Pre-Chorus]
(F) Thought the fire meant it’s over
(M) Every bridge just ash and smoke
(F) But it warmed us through the winter
(M) Left a line of light and hope
[Chorus]
Credits roll
Lights stay on
We are not the ending song
We are every quiet scene
After everyone has gone
Yeah
We messed up
We moved on
Still we hum that old theme strong
We’re not finished
Just moved on
Credits roll
Lights stay on
[Bridge]
[Music falls to clean guitar
Close dual vocal]
(F) I forgive that scared kid in my mirror
(M) I forgive that boy who always ran
(F) We can leave the scene
But keep the lesson
(M) We can change the script
Not who we am (hey)
(F & M together)
We’re allowed to turn the page
Let the ink blur
Keep the page
If the story twists and bends
That just means it never ends
[Chorus]
Credits roll
Lights stay on
We are not the ending song
We are every quiet scene
After everyone has gone
Yeah
We messed up
We moved on
Still we hum that old theme strong
We’re not finished
Just moved on
Credits roll
Lights stay on
[Outro]
(F) Curtain falls
But we keep talking
(M) Street outside
Still carrying on
(F & M) Same old sky above the parking lot
Different us
Still moving on
Credits roll
Lights stay on (woah)
Lights stay on
