Do you really care?
It's not like it matters anyway
What's going to happen here?
We'll laugh about it all one day

It's all going to seem like a waste of time
Nothing is so special
'Cause they're just chemicals in our minds

We get together while it last sleep with fire
You've got to mean it
You've got to see it
How can we never leave when we look straight in their eyes
