The way it worked

Sitting down by the fire place
Ice cream melts in our hands for days

Damn I wish nothing good had changed
Was it really all this way?

Lakes around nothing but old dirt
Small old town we visit on this earth

Brown old eyes I could never hurt
I guess this was the way it worked

Just the way it worked

Missing times you and me
Through books and reality

Remembering the sand in our feet
That show that made us fall asleep

Yeah that show we fell asleep

Knew I was struggling
Knew I was done

Knew I was upset
But you made it fun

Making me happy forgetting that junk
Making me smile and you always won

And now your done

I guess thats just the way it worked
My best friend I lost her first

No one ever hurts her
But thats just the way it worked

I knew that you were gone
I knew you kept it strong

I knew that you were gone
I know this isn't wrong

But thats just the way it worked
