[Verse 1]
I built a bunker in the back of my mind
The walls were a dream, the roof was lucite
There was art in the halls that was never ours
The scaffolds fell, the comet fired

[Pre-Chorus]
Does it all come close or just the sound?
I’m sick of poets and being profound
You bathe in the sweat, your mouth like a straw
You’re calloused, but soft, you chase every flaw
[Chorus]
You were mine
You were mine
You were mine
You were never mine
You were mine, oh (Do you ever think of me now and then?)
You were mine, woah (Do you ever fall into pieces?)
You were mine, woah (Do you ever think of me now and then?)
You were never mine (Don’t avoid the question)

[Verse 2]
I miss the future like a face I forgot
Like worms miss the Earth in the bottom of a pot
Yeah, I miss the future, it’s mirrors in smoke
It’s mirrors and more mirrors and you’re in on the joke

[Pre-Chorus]
Does it all come close or just the sound?
I’m sick of poets and being profound, yeah
You bathe in the sweat, your mouth like a straw
You’re calloused, but soft, you chase every flaw

[Chorus]
You were mine, oh
You were mine, oh

You were mine, oh
You were never mine (You were mine)

[Refrain]
Do you ever think of me now and then?
Do you ever fall into pieces? (You were never mine)
Do you ever think of me now and then? (You were never mine)
Don’t avoid the question (You were mine)
Do you ever think of me now and then?
Do you ever fall into pieces? (You were mine woah)
Do you ever think of me now and then? (You were mine)
Don’t avoid the question (You were never mine)

[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Does it all come closer?
