I tasted, tasted love so sweet
and all of it was lost on me
bought and sold like property
sugar on my tongue

I kept falling over
kept looking backwards
I went broke believing
that the simple should be hard

all we are, we are
all we are, we are
and every day's a start
at something beautiful

I wasted, wasted love for you
trading out for something new
well, it's hard to change the way you lose
if you think you've never won

all we are, we are
all we are, we are
and every day's a start
at something beautiful

and in the end, the words don't matter
cause in the end, nothing stays the same
and in the end, the dreams just scatter and fall like rain
