Lyrics

We used to be something surreal

We used to share a connection that felt extraordinary and beyond reality.

Others looked to us for what we built

Others admired us for what we had created or achieved together.

We were ending to the point

Our relationship was reaching its conclusion.

The point in which we fell

We reached a critical point that led to our downfall.

We fell by the wayside, and slowly watched ourselves die

We declined and deteriorated, witnessing our own demise over time.

A lonely death in which no one cared and no one came

We faced a solitary and ignored death where no one cared or intervened.

When the falls cave in, we only have ourselves to blame

Our failures are our own responsibility when everything collapses.


And even if it's dark at least we'll be together

Even in dark times, we will be together, facing the inevitable.

Slowly sinking in the earth to lay forever

Sinking into the ground, embracing a perpetual rest.

You better grab a hold and hold on for your life

We must cling to each other tightly, as life demands resilience.

Because you don't get lucky twice

Opportunities for success are rare, so seize them when they come.


Now even if it's perfect, I can't get carried away

Even in perfection, it's essential not to get carried away.

And motivate my tongue in twisted ways

Trying to express oneself in intricate and convoluted ways.

It felt like a good night, for dancing and the moonlight

A moment that seemed perfect for dancing under the moonlight.

In empty streets, well, everybody's got a reason why

In deserted streets, everyone has their own justification for actions.

If we could only just get it right

If only we could find the right path or solution.


Maybe you will lower down like in the movies

Perhaps you'll descend dramatically as in movies.

But I know Romeo must die before the ending

But acknowledging that a tragic end, like Romeo's, is inevitable.

With a final poison kiss delivered gently

A final kiss with poison, recognizing the scarcity of second chances.

Because you don't get lucky twice, and that's the truth

Reiterating the rarity of getting lucky twice, emphasizing reality.


Sing to me sweet, just like my memory

Requesting a soothing melody reminiscent of cherished memories.

If New York City still moves me

Reflecting on the impact of New York City and its ability to evoke emotions.

Then I found something real

Discovering something genuine amid the chaos.

I'll be okay, I could go on for days

Expressing resilience, able to endure for an extended period.

But I just don't have the courage that it takes to be real

Lacking the bravery needed to be truly authentic.


And even if it's dark at least we'll be together

Reiterating the theme of togetherness in challenging times.

Slowly sinking in the earth to lay forever

Descending into eternal rest as a unified entity.

You better grab a hold and hold on for your life

Urging to hold on tightly for survival in the face of adversity.

Because you don't get lucky twice

Emphasizing the infrequency of second chances in life.

No, you don't get lucky twice

Reiterating the rarity of getting lucky twice, emphasizing reality.
