We both said goodbye but at different times

(instead)
you asked for time n' distance
against my own insistence
that moment my friend
it was doomed to end

in-between the lines of
horoscopes and vinyl's
heeding the fine signs
fled somewhere inside

if history was kind
earth to reach the sublime
we could mind the time
but now's not what I find

minor indiscretions
language of deception
wise goodbyes left unsaid
should have left nothing instead
major indiscretions
language of deception
wise goodbyes left unsaid
should have left nothing instead

pretty escapades
with the darker of the shades
preying on lesser men
taking whatever I can

if history was kind
earth to reach the sublime
we could mind the time
but now's not what I find

minor indiscretions
language of deception
wise goodbyes left unsaid
should have left nothing instead
many indiscretions
language of deception
wise goodbyes left unsaid
should have left nothing instead
...should have left nothing instead
