It's All About Us (early version)


Secluded in depression
I can't do a thing to help
We're all locked inside our tiny rooms
Feeling sorry for ourselves

In all this isolation
There ain't a thing that makes much sense
But I can still let on like I don't care
Even though I can't connect

But it's not about me, it's not about you
It's all about us and the things that we do
It's how we hold on or when we let go
In what we believe in or what we don't know
It's all about us, it's all about us

With distance and perspective
We can look back on this time
With all the fondness or resentment
Gathered up inside our minds

This silence seems so deafening
Though I'm trying to escape
We're always running from our problems
Or trying to find someone to blame

But it's not about me, it's not about you
It's all about us and the things that we do
It's how we hold on or when we let go
In what we believe in or what we don't know
It's all about us, it's all about us

Who do you love and who do you trust?
And what do you do when your love turns to dust?
Do you walk away? Do you walk away?

How do you hide inside your regrets?
And what can you say when your beaten to death?
Do you walk away? You can't walk away

But it's not about me, it's not about you
It's all about us and the things that we do
It's how we hold on or when we let go
In what we believe in or what we don't know
It's all about us, it's all about us

Who do you love and who do you trust?
And what do you do when your love turns to dust?
It's all about us, it's all about us
