[Verse 1]
I rewrite my life beneath moonlight
Please hold me now 'til my breath runs out
There are many things that I am not
But there's one thing that I can't deny

A double bluff
You fed me lines
The shortest cut
You're searching for
A mesh of tones surround your eyes
I wish I knew how it came to this

[Chorus]
I always said you could rely on me
Now it seems that I was wrong
I want you to stay
I want you to stay with me

Cause nothing works 'round here
Where cranes collect the sky
I long for the neon signs of night
Cause nothing works 'round here

You know the way I feel
Can you remember what we had?

[Verse]
Why do you think I overtake
I speak to you and you don't say no
A camera runs just to collect
I wish I knew how it came to this

The lies we tell are found on film
And you start to push your lips to mine
Outside my room you closed your eyes
And in the end it came to this

[Chorus]
I always said you could rely on me
Now it seems that I was wrong
I want you to stay
I want you to stay with me

Cause nothing works 'round here
Where cranes collect the sky
I think of your face at night
Cause nothing works 'round here

You know the way I feel
Can you remember what we had?

[Post-Chorus]
As time gets more compressed
You're always my reminder

A lifetime disappears
Can you remember what we had?

As time gets more compressed
You're always my reminder (reminder, reminder, reminder, reminder, reminder, reminder...)

As time gets more compressed
You're always my reminder (reminder, reminder, reminder, reminder, reminder, reminder...)

You know the way I feel
You know the way I feel
