Possible Futures

[Verse 1]
Two streets separate us, a seaside road full of traffic lights
A sky that needs to be rebuilt, brushing against the treetops
And there’s no point in carrying on, it would all stay the same
I want something else to think about, we’re tired of fighting
And now I wander through the streets, still stumbling
Over my own melancholy, in an icy cold
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
We deserved a grand finale
But just when it got good, the hail started falling
 
[Chorus]
But out of all the possible futures
Fate chose the one where we separate
We were impossible
And we could never decide
And even though I’ve moved on, I’ve learned to live with it
I still feel the drafts creeping in
Through invisible windows
From all the possible futures with you
 
[Verse 2]
I stay here waiting while the days keep repeating
I watch the certainties of a lifetime start to crack
I keep to myself, they say it will pass
But it’s just talk—it burns more than salt on a wound
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
The memory won’t let me go
And it follows me around like a dog
 
[Chorus]
But out of all the possible futures
Fate chose the one where we separate
We were impossible
And we could never decide
And even though I’ve moved on, I’ve learned to live with it
I still feel the drafts creeping in
Through invisible windows
From all the possible futures with you
 
[Verse 3]
There’s a future where you always wake up before me
You rush out and don’t even have time for coffee
Another one where you’re always away
And your home is also mine
One where we have a mortgage, a child, and a dog
And a stack of bills to pay
Where I never told you a lie
And the magic never faded
 
[Outro]
Some memories stay vivid
But too often, they can’t be trusted
They leave invisible marks
In all the possible futures
