lyrics

We’re up, we’re down and it’s been found that this is going nowhere
I’ll wait around a while but did I ever really care?
If all is fair in war, in love I won’t take any prisoners
The empty spaces that you are will fill with vacant air.

This is what you came for.

Breaking your heart
Is a good place to start
I just thought you should know
This is how love goes.

Don’t get excited while your savor every second of this
I’ll be the perfect man you wish you never met at all.
I’ll kiss your neck and promise everything you’ve ever wanted
I’ll build the tallest buildings just for you to watch them fall.

This is what you came for.

Breaking your heart
Is a good place to start
Now I want you to know
This is how love goes.
If we can pretend
That we’ll still be friends
Long after it ends
This is love at its best.

We’re over now and it’s been found that this was all for nothing
I’ll be the perfect man you wish you hadn’t fallen for.
If all is fair in love, in war I’ll be a model soldier
The vacant smiles that we wear won’t matter anymore.

This is what you came for.
