It's sleeping in between the two of us And we can feel it grow We were a flame that burned out all at once Now all that's left is coal I know it's soon We'll have to learn how to live on our own You know it's soon We're holding on, we need to let go I don't wanna hurt you, but there's no other way Promise that you'll see it one day We're better strangers We make better strangers We're running from the breakdown, the bittering goodbye The truth is you and I make better strangers We make better strangers We're just two people with some memories Too soon to still be friends No, I don't wanna be your enemy Can you forget me instead? I know it's soon We'll have to learn how to live on our own You know it's soon We're holding on, we need to let go I don't wanna hurt you, but there's no other way Promise that you'll see it one day We're better strangers We make better strangers We're running from the breakdown, the bittering goodbye The truth is you and I make better strangers We make better strangers When we're older, found our closure Maybe we can start over Let ourselves fall after it all Find our way back to love I don't wanna hurt you, but there's no other way Promise that you'll see it one day Our hearts are safer We make better strangers
