"Like We Once Did" lyrics

I played defeat and I know what it means to feel misery
But I choose to leave it alone
Play your favorite song just to see if you're listening
But you choose to leave me alone

Why can't we get it together like we once did?

I say the words and I ask, "Are they falling on deaf ears?"
And you say you're scared it might be so
But equally you speak up and you say I'm your misery
I am scared but felt it might be so

Why can't we get it together like we once did?

Ooh
Ooh

Do we have enough within?
Are we deeper than [?] skin
And patiently waiting for magic to happen
But it don't, we gotta do the work
We need to help each other find [?]
These things happen, it's human nature

We are a thread that we shall not detach
Much more than can be caught in photographs
[?]
Let's get it together like we once did
