​how it started Lyrics by ​spookybands

​how it started/​how it ends

2022

[Verse 1]
I got high and died today, at least that's how it felt
Mixed up way too many things
And I felt my heart beat way too fast again
It made you feel so far away and yet, you were on my breath
I think last words are overrated
I want mine to be your name, baby
I tried to make our love feel like the first time again
I like how it started, overwhelming
Gentle seas, fuck that, you’re a tempest
And maybe things just seemed a little better in my head
But the way I smiled on thе drive home
From your place was dеfinitely real, love

[Chorus]
Don't go, I don't wanna cry
Before someone calls my phone
And I lie and tell ’em I'm fine
All the while I always think they know
I'm lost somewhere on the spine
Of a book that you and I wrote
That's fading away with time
On the shelf, above the fireplace

[Verse 2]
I got high and died today, at least that's what I hoped
But I woke up from a nightmare
Sat up way too fast and it ruined my morning
Traffic on the interstate, took a long time getting home
It went faster with you in my passenger seat
Instead, I'm sitting here daydreaming
I wish you tried to make our love feel like the first time again
I like how it started, overwhelming
Gentle seas, fuck that, you're a tempest
And maybe things just seemed a little better in my head
But the way I smiled on the drive home
From your place was definitely real, love

[Chorus]
Don't go I don’t wanna cry
Before someone calls my phone
And I lie and tell ’em I'm fine
All the while I always think they know
I’m lost somewhere on the spine
Of a book that you and I wrote
That's fading away with time
On the shelf, above the fireplace
