lyrics

The universe is far too small
To ignore the things that could make you whole
And the world is filled with too much grief
To ignore someone else's needs

And I'm lost to where I'm going
As well as where I've been
And I must find a beginning now that
This has reached an end
And people lose their love somehow
But I keep mine deep inside me now
Where it always screams, but it never makes a sound

And I never signed a contract
Exclusive to your heart
But that doesn't mean
I can't tell when it's falling apart
And that place to rest my head
That place inside your bed
Has become nothing more than
Something dark and misread

And as a fire burns, we'll close an open door
And I'll take back everything
I must have left here long before
And another chapter ends
And leaves you wanting more
So I'll keep alive our dreams
With these lost earrings

And the human heart seems far too real
To ignore the way that someone makes you feel
And I won't forget all the things I've lost
With love there is no truer cause

We're animals with our chemicals
With our nine-to-five and our weekend buzz
With our bullshit lies and our vicious tongues
That lash out uncontrolled
Why don't we teach each other something?
Our fear - it gives us next to nothing
Inventing simple labels to explain the way we feel

And I never signed a contract
Exclusive to your heart
But that doesn't mean
I can't tell when it's falling apart
And that place to rest my head
That place inside your bed
Has become nothing more than
Something dark and misread

And as the sunset goes, we'll go along this road
And I'll make up honest lies
On how we couldn't stay afloat
And another year will end
And leave me regretful
So I'll keep alive our dreams
With these lost earrings
