I miss competing
To see who would do it better
Knowing you were bringing out
My best version
And finishing without arguing
For lack of inspiration
I knew you were conquering
The same nation as me
And I didn’t want to steer you
You turn starboard
To see if I’m still there
And we devoured each other with our hands
And now there’s no remedy
Now we’ll have to settle for the leftovers
You set the bar very high, and…
You can’t keep it up
How much longer will you stretch that memory
I miss coming to terms
That you’ve written me another song
And you no longer sing for us
We’re cannon fodder now
I fell back into the illusion
Of thinking we were getting better
And I don’t see you conquering
The same nation as me
And I didn’t want to steer
You turn starboard
To see if I’m still there
And we devoured each other with our hands
And now there’s no remedy
Now we’ll have to settle for the leftovers
You set the bar very high, and…
You can’t keep it up
How much longer will you stretch that memory
And we devoured each other with our hands
And now there’s no remedy
Now we’ll have to settle for the leftovers
You set the bar very high, and…
You can’t keep it up
How much longer will you stretch that memory
I miss competing
To see who would do it better
Knowing you were bringing out
My best version
