I Thought I Knew Better

Three years ago, we started from nothing Nothing at all, just us and the will to go on We worked and we worked, we fought for each other Stood up alone and together, looking out for one another But early last year we got off track We got lazy and bored, it was resistance we lacked As time wandered on our lives became sour We need each other but only for a few hours Then life turned upside down and everything was broken What was real became haunted, we felt close to choking So here we are now in the same situation Problem is now that we don’t have us, different sensation Now what do we do, which way do we turn, where do we go I miss what we had; I regret every move now even more so
