[Verse]
Saw your shadow on the pavement tonight
Like a ghost from the corner of my eye
You always said we’d make it out alive
But promises don’t fly
They crash and die
[Chorus]
Us
It was always us
Tangled in the night
Lost in the dust
Us
We were all we trust
But now it’s just a word
Just a broken crust
[Verse 2]
The echoes of your voice are sharp and thin
They cut through the walls I’m hiding in
I trace the scars you left on my skin
But memory’s a thief that always wins
[Chorus]
Us
It was always us
Tangled in the night
Lost in the dust
Us
We were all we trust
But now it’s just a word
Just a broken crust
[Bridge]
Did you mean it when you said forever
Or was forever just a clever endeavor
To keep me near
To keep me tethered
Now I’m weightless
Floating untethered
[Chorus]
Us
It was always us
Tangled in the night
Lost in the dust
Us
We were all we trust
But now it’s just a word
Just a broken crust
