It looks like home
Doesn't feel like it used to
The house we buried in the earth
Now honest words
Just don't mean what they used to
And we exchanged their worth
All that they say
It just didn't feel right
So we walked away and opted out for a real life
A part in the play
Or a shot in the daylight
The choices we made
Was it harder to say goodbye
Than to realize
It feels like this
Just won't last like it needs to
We're all pretending we'll make it work
These honest words still don't mean what they used to
And it keeps getting worse
And worse
Ooooh, aaaaah
All that they say
It just didn't feel right
So we walked away and opted out for a real life
A part in the play
Or a shot in the daylight
The choices we made
Was it harder to say goodbye
Than to sit back and compromise
