Seeing strangers hand in hand
Reminds us of where we've been
Though left unsaid, we understand
That we are not the same as them
Perhaps it's been too long we've stayed in
Maybe we're not all that amazing
Upon closer examination
Of the components of
The only sweetness I hear at home
Is the song you sing when you think that you're alone
In crowded rooms, I could hear your laugh at once
But by ourselves, you haven't smiled like that for months
Perhaps it's been too long we've stayed in
Maybe we're not all that amazing
Upon closer examination
Of the components of love
The skyline's so pretty when the moon's out
Twilight in the city and then it zooms out
No address, more or less, for the most part
Quite serene, picturesque like a postcard
Like a dream, everything's wrapped into one
From far away, we are proud of what we've become
And what's the matter with this thing done
Upon closer examination
We either grow or remain untrue
And truth be told, I blame me more than you
That every time you asked to talk things through
I supplanted conversation and I just sang to you
I guess it's been too long we've stayed in
No, we're not all that amazing
Upon closer examination
Of the components of love
The skyline's so pretty when the moon's out
Twilight in the city and then it zooms out
No address, more or less, for the most part
Quite serene, picturesque like a postcard
Like a dream, everything's wrapped into one
From far away, we are proud of what we've become
And what's the matter with this thing done
Upon closer examination
Holding on for all the wrong reasons
Just going on in the absence of meaning
It's been too long we've lived without
Seeing who we think we are
Looks much better from afar
The skyline's so pretty when the moon's out
