While It Lasted

See the dark sky above your head Remember constellations used to shine there instead Wishing for heat, but it's fading too fast We're the last burning flames of a love that won't last But it was beautiful while it lasted It was beautiful while it lasted We've been fading for some time now We've just ignored all the rain somehow Think it's time to agree, it's time to admit Our spark's gone out whenever we've relit it We are a broken light We used to burn so bright Glittering, glamourous, fantastic oh We are a dying star Too many shining scars Shattered glass just looks like plastic It was beautiful while it lasted, wasn't it, wasn't it It was beautiful while it lasted Flint and steel bones that crack underneath The weight of the words that we don't mean We were explosive with a bang from the very start Nothing can save this flickering heart, oh We are a broken light We used to burn so bright Glittering, glamourous, fantastic We are a dying star Too many shining scars Shattered glass just looks like plastic It was beautiful while it lasted, wasn't it, wasn't it It was beautiful while it lasted, wasn't it, wasn't it It was beautiful while it lasted, wasn't it, wasn't it It was beautiful while it lasted, wasn't it, wasn't it We are a broken light We used to burn so bright Glittering, glamourous, fantastic oh We are a dying star Too many shining scars Shattered glass just looks like plastic It was beautiful while it lasted, wasn't it, wasn't it It was beautiful while it lasted
