Bought a one-way ticket hopin' there might be somethin' better
But while starin' back at it, I can't decide which way was better
But I'll take the chance
Sick of holdin' hands with my bad ideas
Now I'm runnin' out of minutes stayin' awake
Thinkin' it could've been better
Why did we stay up, stay up?
Knowing it's wrong, but not catchin' on
It never did much, did much
Hurting so long, yet still holdin' on
Written in our palms, we thought we knew it all
But the higher we went, the further we'd fall
It never did much, did much
Why did we stay up, stay up?
(Why did we stay up, stay up?)
Even though it's all different
I still feel like I'm followed by shadows
Never mattered the distance
Always came back to the path that we chose
Yeah, I took the bait
Sacrificed my faith for your bad ideas
Now I'm runnin' out of minutes, stayin' awake
Just to dance with shadows
Why did we stay up, stay up?
Knowing it's wrong, but not catchin' on
It never did much, did much
Hurting so long, yet still holdin' on
Written in our palms, we thought we knew it all
But the higher we went, the further we'd fall
It never did much, did much
Why did we stay up, stay up?
(Why did we stay up, stay up?)
(Why did we stay up, stay up?)
