lyrics

The love has been confessed
And she feels the same
Better than the best
The sun appears
Then hides again
Infinite jest

You're surrounded by these ghosts
Loves that betrayed you at the most
But now she looks into your eyes
Don't feel like a joke anymore

The stories always start the same
A boy and a girl they meet
But narratives flip and start to change
This feels like the first act of a tragedy

(CELLO SOLO)

This feels too good to last
The best things still end
You know this from the past
The moment comes
And now it's gone
It happened so fast

You try to breathe her in
To always have a part of her contained within
'Cause any day she'll walk away
You still can't help it
It's a sin

The stories always start the same
A boy and a girl they meet
But narratives flip and start to change
This feels like the first
This feels like the first act
This feels like the first act of a tragedy
