Lyrics (fan transcription):

say goodbye
love again…
I don’t want to, want to, want to, want to
go in circles, round the bend
until we are just friends again
and then not even that
sometimes I almost can recall what it was like before we ever met
sometimes not even that

I was carved
from your rib…
dust to dust to dust to dust to to dust to
go in circles, round the bend
until we are just friends again
and then not even that
sometimes I almost can recall what it was like before we ever met
sometimes not even that…
