Far Behind

For the first time I remember

I saw stars out in September

I was basking in the moonlight

When my thoughts began to lose sight

I was laying on the front lawn

And the daylight here was long gone

As my thoughts began to quicken

Pretty soon the plot would thicken

Why were we wasting time?

We dared to cross that line

But now it's far behind

Now it's far behind, oh no

As we moved into October

With the devil on our shoulders

From the stories we'd created

Reproduced and fabricated

Was it something in the air then?

That would make us unprepared when

We would finally meet our ending

In the fall to stop pretending

Why were we wasting time?

We dared to cross that line

But now it's far behind

Now it's far behind, oh no

I can't see you when you smile

You've been gone for quite awhile

Like a habit left that I could break

Are you forsaking it?

Are you forsaking it?

Why were we wasting time?

We dared to cross that line

But now it's far behind

Now it's far behind, oh no

Yeah now it's far behind

Now it's far behind, oh no
