My Favorite Accident

I got the message long before you said you knew

There was no chance of us at all

With no velocity, and empty-headed hard, and far too long

I spent two years alone with you

Just when I thought I had forgotten

You came back soft without a sound

You said, "We were an accident"

With accidents, you'll never know what could have been

So, we were an accident

You'll always be my favourite one

You hit the road and left me in an ocean

I can't swim in the silence of your skin, skin, please, let me in

Aside the times we never had right

Inside two years alone with you

You said, "We were an accident"

With accidents, you'll never know what could have been

So, we were an accident

You'll always be my favourite one

We could have been (we could have been again)

Instead of accidental running, always running (why can't you believe?)

We could have been (we could have been again)

Long-winded promises of future company

Up close, the sound remains the same

Without the reign of terror over every momentary change

We are exactly as before

You hit the road and left me in an ocean

I can't swim in the silence of your skin, skin, please, let me in

'Side the time I had to forget you

Inside no chance of us at all
