7 Years Bad Luck

Retrace the minutes, come turn back the clock
 We'll be ok as soon as we stop
 When the wind's breathing quietly the stories not told
 And the birds are all screaming and it's getting old
 For over three months, it's been nothing but rain
 August is coming, there is no time for pain
 If you come in closer now, we could live forever
 With these postcard reminders to rewrite love letters
 Everything is different except you and me (On and off you change the way you feel)
 So let's make our plans to give up eventually
 (Call it quits and play the field and we'll give up eventually)
 But for right now I won't take less than your word
 You tried to avoid them but you can't forget
 All the shared distractions, all the lost steps
 When we're chasing a future we make for ourselves
 We lay all the obvious to die on the shelf
 Sins stain the sheets where we used to lay
 Tomorrow's not bright, but neither is today
 So let's paint our emotions on these bathroom walls
 And ask all the questions that lead to our fall
 For right now I won't take less that your word
 Accusation premises
 Question mark lies
 I can see better
 After it dies
 Everything is different when it doesn't matter
 My mirror's been broken, your world is shattered
 If it doesn't matter, just go (Everything is different if we change the way we feel)
 You would do nothing, you would not try (Call it quits, let's find out if it kills)
 Just go if that's what you want
 For right now I won't take less than your world
 Then we'll give up eventually
