The Heartsleeves — We Lost lyrics

Lyrics

The mint upon the pillow, is that I leave without a visual clue.
The cherry on the top, my absence is known only to you.
The credits roll, we rise and turn to go,
and paths fork off like two trails in the snow.
The last page holds some scrawls in invisible ink,
The world moves on and no one has to think.
or discover…
uncover, commiserate with fate,
put a finger to the flame
collect commission on your claim
no one is factious or cautious
strong willed or nauseous
emotional sickness will toss us
about
till we find out we lost.
(x4) No one is in time, I feel my senses slowing down.
senses slowing down
The little silver streak is that your exit burst a hole in the dark.
The summit on the peak is that the bite is the same as the bark.
The torture and the sweetness is the same,
but now I have control over the pain.
You’ve written me a note in invisible ink,
I move where no one ever has to think.
or discover…
uncover, commiserate with fate,
put a finger to the flame
collect commission on your claim
no one is factious or cautious
strong willed or nauseous
emotional sickness will toss us
about
till we find out we lost.
(x8) No one is in time, I feel my senses slowing down.
(x5) senses slowing down
(x5) till we find out we lost
