Take me back to where we started Let's erase every memory and make it so we never existed These days will only end in shame Did you ever believe we'd be this way? Tearing down the structures that we made I think we need to make a change You can twist and turn me inside out But you'll never stretch what I'm about And everything you let slip Is pushing forward to a repeat exit Take back what we've done, We can start it all over Take me back to where we started Let's erase every memory and make it so we never existed Take me back to where we started Let's erase every memory and make it so we never existed Looks like we've been here before We're throwing punches, but we're missing all the marks I say we need to take a second to analyze what we've been missing Every time you cry I try to hide it but a piece of me dies Every time we try We always end up at each other's throats I can't escape who I am Take me back to where we started Let's erase every memory and make it so we never existed Take me back to where we started Let's erase every memory and make it so we never existed Don't try to hide all your demons inside Let me see who you really are Don't pretend everything's alright We knew we were dead from the start I don't expect you to understand It's time to take my life in my own hands I finally realize I need a fresh start We were always meant to fall apart We were always meant to fall apart We were always meant to fall apart Take me back to where we started Let's erase every memory and make it so we never existed Take me back to where we started Let's erase every memory and make it so we never existed Every time you cry I try to hide it but a piece of me dies
