Sticks 'n' stones

saturn

we wanted to go to saturn.
in the future we wanted to travel to the stars.
we wanted to go to saturn
we wanted to claim it as ours.

but now we don't talk.
i barely know who you are
now we just hide in the dark
far far away from eachother.

we wanted to go to saturn
but then we grew up.
we wanted to go to saturn
but then we became corrupt.

we don't talk anymore
but our memories make me sad
i want it to be how it was before
but i know i can't deal with that

we've gone our separate ways
so why can't you leave me alone?
we've gone our separate ways.
and now we're on our own.

I asked you for one thing,
i wanted you to leave me be.
and you didn't.
so why should we?

why should we 'go back to how it was'?
why should we be friends?
maybe it's 'just cause'.

but why should we?

we wanted to go to saturn,
we wanted to dance on the rings.
we wanted to be together,
and sing about all the pretty things.

we wanted to go to saturn,
but now i'm on the moon.
and you're a million miles away on mars.
but fate says we'll possibly meet again soon.

but i don't want to meet again soon.
i want to leave you be.
just how you should've left me.
