Ever Since Songtext
von Make Do and Mend

Measure the moments by the almosts and the came close
By the what the fucks and the I don′t knows
'Cause soon they′re gonna notice the space between us starting to show
We played the songs with all the long notes, played them too slow
To the empty rooms where your friends don't go
'Cause they don′t need to know that there′
S nothing good that doesn't implode
But I know
Yeah, I know
That we don′t have the strength to let it go
If there was a way to fight a decade's slow decay
There′d be no telling how the sadder songs would play
Oh, I'm just so sick of the words
Sick of the feelings they can′t allay
There's only so many ways you can
Burn out or drop off the earth's face
Fuck off and fade away
Keep it down or drown it out


It all gets swallowed anyhow
If there was ever a high road, they washed it out
It′s haunting how, how it all comes back around
′Cause you can't turn the tables if they put nothing down
Oh, but you know
That we don′t have the strength to let it go
If there was a way to fight a decade's slow decay
There′d be no telling how the sadder songs would play
Oh, I'm just so sick of the words
Sick of the feelings they can′t allay
There's only so many ways you can
Burn out or drop off the earth's face
Fuck off and fade away
Tell me if I′ve been a fool
Was it something I did or I didn′t do?
Was there something you saw in them that I was staring through?
I guess we had it to lose
But that just makes it harder now that it's through
