we were friends

Singer:ellie goulding

suddenly we were friends

guarding our country from traitors and new trends

you are at the borders

i am at the beaches examining exactly what the enemy teaches

like presidents and pilots

we turned our blind eye to letters over our heads

floating in the sky

thousands of paper animals signalling danger

they are evolving

and the world's a stranger

no currency to drive us crazy

no vehicles would drive us and make us lazy

to make us lazy

only time my fall is when i fear

only time may notice i disappear

and i can't go back without a counter attack

and i can't turn around

it's my mother's pride

so close to somewhere else but we're not going there

we scan the forest floors

looking worse for wear

for life outside of ours

because we are too shallow and too brave to hide our scars and step in one's shadow

i am protective over you and the stories we enact

gain what from the smallest of contact

no currency to drive us crazy

no vehicles to drive us and make us lazy

to make us lazy

only time i fall is when i fear

only time may notice i disappear

and when i see her

when i see her. everyday

only time my fall is when i fear

only time may notice i disappear

and when i see her

when i see her everyday.
