Unaware that something was in the air
Floating around us and slowly surrounding us whole

Was it a second, a day or a year
When you began to disappear
Do you remember the moment 
You started to know it was done

    With a whimper, not a bang
    Not a lion, but a lamb
    We just withered and died, like a lily outside in the cold
    And through Rome wasn't built in a day
    It longer still to decay   
    Slowly but surely, your brain it just blurred me away
 
The chains were strained, and slowly your passion waned
We once talked all night, now we don’t even fight anymore

At first I thought you needed space
But I was already being erased  
The sole resolution, a foregone conclusion, it’s done

    [Chorus]

Aim your soul, follow where you must go
And I'll follow mine through the tangle of vines in the night

So this is the way that it ends
A half-hearted promise to always be friends
A glance at the floor, then you walk out the door to your life

    [Chorus]
