Permanent Lyrics

You liked it so much in the city
You know I could not stand it there
You loved to get lost in the people
And pretend that they really cared
You know you're such a bad imposter
Hiding your wings beneath your coat
As I watch your footprints make a pattern
Away from me into the snow
Now I don't believe in nothing anymore
Cause love is permanent, not temporary
It's driven straight into our chests and buried
Much too deep to just pull out like weeds in a garden
It's permanent, well I'm sorry.

So lately I've been going crazy
Trying to get you off my mind
'Cause thoughts of you hang just like pictures
And gather dust over the time
We hung them up just like real lovers
And drove our nails into the wall
'Cause we thought theyd be there forever
No, but we werent permanent at all
And it's getting much too hard to see you now
'Cause love is permanent, not temporary
It's driven straight into our chests and buried
Much too deep to just pull out like weeds in a garden
It's permanent, well I'm sorry.
Love is permanent not temporary
It is driven straight into our chests then buried
Much too deep to just pull out like weeds in a garden
It's permanent, well I'm sorry.
Well I'm sorry
It's permanent
I'm sorry.
