You felt responsible,
I felt responsible,
But nobody was in charge.
Careful and sensible -
So indefensible -
We were idiots at large.
I stepped out of line
Just like that.
I cut all my ties
Just like that.
The dreams in our heads
Moved slowly,
The dreams in our heads
They crawled.
I stepped out of line
Just like that.
I cut all my ties
Just like that.
I'm lost to you now.
Just like that.
The threats on the wind
Are not idle threats.
The life that we led
Was small.
I stepped out of line
Just like that.
I cut all my ties
Just like that.
I'm lost to you now.
When it's gone, it's gone,
It's gone, it's gone.
(And it's never coming back)."
