How Do We Stay In Love?

Two kids out, wandering
Kingdom between our streets, highest I've ever been
With two feet on the pavement
Lost in a world we knew
Meanwhile, the cancer grew
But they were too scared to say
'Cause we're too young to get it
Hmm-mm, ah-ah-ah, hmm-mm
Thought we were made of stone
That we would never fall
But, still, our castle's broke
Into a thousand pieces

It's nothing like they promised
But how could we have known?
In a world gone up in smoke
How do we stay honest?
How do we not give up?
How do we stay in love? Hmm-mm

I haven't seen you since
The winter that I watched the house you grew up in
Turn into a prison
When your mother passed away
Angel in human skin, there were no words to say
But fuck all our religions

It was nothing like they promised
But how could we have known?
In a world gone up in smoke
How do we stay honest?
How do we not give up?
How do we stay in love? Hmm-mm (it was nothing like they, nothing like they—)
How do we stay in love? Hmm-mm, hmm-mm (how do we stay? How do we stay?)
How do we stay in love? Mm

Walking down these streets, I'm freezing
All our footsteps, disappearing
Some places are built for leaving but
It's like we were never here

It's nothing like they promised
But how could we have known?
In a world gone up in smoke
How do we stay honest?
How do we not give up?
How do we stay in love?
