There  are lines that we set up
 As you and  I become us
 When we start, there is less struggle  when theyre crossed.
 But on days  already rough
 The lines get close  enough to touch
 And the smallest movement sets  all the alarms  off
 What takes so  long to find can easily  get lost
Well  I cant figure  out what to  do
Is  there still time  left to save the afternoon?
Before  we say something that  isnt true
Is  there still time left to save  the afternoon?
Ive  said things that I regret,
some  after days, some after breakfast
 And I know my pride can get  the best of me.
 But this  is not some massive fire, destroying  fields hour by hour
 But it burns me up again  when you leave angry
So  before you go please listen  to my plead.
Well  I cant figure  out what  to do
Is  there still time left to  save the afternoon?
Before  we say something that  isnt true
Is  there still time left  to save the afternoon?
Save  us from the silent treatments
Save  us from the separate sleepin
 Save us from the thought that this  could be the end.
Hope  in making the first move
 Catch you thinking  that same thing too
 That you crack that smile then we  can start again
Lets  use tonight to make  our amends
Well  I can’t figure  out what  to do
Is  there still time left to save  the afternoon?
Before  we say something that  isnt true
Is  there still time left  to save the afternoon?
