what happened to us

Like the flowers of youth That were tied in your hair Into tangles and knots And we never quite cared That our pockets were empty We didn't have much When the sky was alive With the sounds of the night Humming songs on the porch Fading, flickering lights And you held me Until the dawn Ooh, what happened to us Ooh, what happened to us When my lips searched for yours Drawing breath from your life How you tore through the veil And you made me your bride Yet I wandered Far from the fold And now I am a slave Of these dry bones and chains Like a bird in her cage Longing to fly away And the keys are Right in our hands Ooh, what happened to us Ooh, what happened to Oh I know We'll reap the mess we've sown Oh I know We'll reap the mess we've sown Oh I know We'll reap the mess we've sown Oh I know We'll reap the mess we've sown Ooh what happened to us Ooh what happened to us Ooh we're shaking the dust Ooh what happened to us
