I wanted to go on grocery store runs
with you at 3 AM.
But now it's been 3 years,
and you tell people we're not friends.

Now I shop the other side of town,
and I try to forget you,
'cause if I see you around,
I know I'll regret...

I'll regret it all.
And the not calling.
And the needing of time
which just kept escaping.
The bends and the aches,
'cause we keep on breaking
apart.

So I've painted over
all the hollow walls
I built up,
but I can't ignore
how your face
is gone from every photo.
And I still,
still don't know how to
Not regret...

Regret it all.
And the not calling.
And the needing of time
which just kept escaping.
The bends and the aches,
'cause we keep on breaking.
It's hard
knowing we might
never restart
'cause I need,
I need another chance,
but there's bends and high stakes.
And it's painstaking
being apart.

The not calling.
The needing of time.
It's escaping.
The bends;
the aches;
I keep breaking.
I need,
I need
another chance.
It's so hard,
so hard
being apart.

Grocery store runs at 3 AM.
Did you know I still call
you my best friend?

I try to pretend
I don't see you around
'cause you know I regret
I regret (I regret)...

The not calling.
And the needing of time
which just keeps escaping.
The bends and the aches,
'cause we keep on breaking.
It's hard
knowing we might
never restart,
'cause I need,
I need
another chance.
But there's bends and high stakes.

And it's painstaking being apart.
