Backwards, forwards but making no ground at all
|
Standing in the city with the clocks counting one
|
And your face is still wet from the fight before
|
As your tears hit the ground, blue flowers spring from them
|
Baby, I'm ashamed of the things I put you through
|
Baby, I'm ashamed of the man I was for you
|
|
And all you said in your quietest voice
|
Was "I needed you as much as they do"
|
|
How fast must we run before we can just take off in flight?
|
How far must we run before they do not recognise us?
|
So let's take this from the start, you'll be me and I'll be you
|
And let's try not to complain about your smoking
|
And my distant heart
|
And my distant heart
|
And my distant heart
|
|
And all you said in your quietest voice
|
Was "I needed you as much as they do"
|
|
(Too many mirrors in this house)
|
(And I don't like to see myself like this)
|
(I'm becoming the man I used to be I guess)
|
(These walls could tell you a thing or two)
|
(Things that you really don't want to know)
|
(Lend me your eyes for your point of view)
|
(Lend me your feet and I'll stand by you)
|
|
And all you said in your quietest voice
|
Was "I needed you as much as they do"
|
