Kele Okereke - Versions Of Us lyrics

Fall back, fall back You lost the right to come at me Call time or call a truce Will we make it through the year? We’re doing all the things We said we’d never do See I know I’ve started to lose you See I know you’ve started to slip from my reach If we could be the best versions of us We could be for one last night Hold back, you’re holding back It’s impossible to get to you I’ll try to tear down these walls My throat is burning And my hands are sore We’re doing all the things I thought we’d never do Silence is an act of war At night I lie awake Amd still there’s nothing sayd How can we begin again? See I know I’ve started to lose you See I know you’ve started to slip from my reach If we could be the best versions of us We could be for one last night And it wasn’t my intention To bring up past resentments And it wasn’t my intention to burn for once I’d like to be The one who’s held not holds Is that alright? You owe me that
