"Counterpane" lyrics - THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE

Strange changes come with age
Some things disappear in a day
And some things slowly fade
And you and I are like the ink staining all the other pages

[Chorus:]
We're at the edge of the World again
A step back is a step forward
Been here before when we were innocent
I saw the signs, but I couldn't find the words
Now we're stuck in a wasteland
Everyone in the dark adores you
So much regret for things I never said
I should've left, I always meant to

Shame, there's nobody to blame
People interlace by mistake sometimes
It hurts to walk away
But we're just cheap toys perpetually breaking

[Chorus:]
We're at the edge of the World again
A step back is a step forward
Been here before when we were innocent
I saw the signs, but I couldn't find the words
Now we're stuck in a wasteland
Everyone in the dark adores you
So much regret for things I never said
I should've left, I always meant to

[Bridge:]
We're at the edge of the World again
Time will never heal the distance
Been here before when we were innocent
Building this modern prison for so long, so long

[Outro:]
We're at the edge of the World again
A step back is a step forward
Been here before when we were innocent
I saw the signs, but I couldn't find the words
Now we're stuck in a wasteland
Everyone in the dark adores you
So much regret for things I never said
I should've left, I always meant to
