| Was it all in real time
|
| Or was it just in my mind?
|
| Was I just a ghost passing through you?
|
| Clinging to the wreckage
|
| Till I got the message
|
| Hanging at the edge of the room
|
| Give me something that’s real
|
| Give me half of your bitterest pill
|
| Something from under the surface
|
| You actually feel
|
| We say these words again and again
|
| But they still sound the same
|
| It was in your eyes, in your eyes
|
| They were just easy lies
|
| The lightest words are heavy
|
| And promises are easy
|
| And no one’s ever happy or sad for very long
|
| But just because I said it
|
| It doesn’t mean I meant it
|
| I guess that was the way all along
|
| I’m just shaping the sound
|
| I’m just turning the syllables round
|
| Dipping my toe in the water
|
| And watching you drown
|
| We say these words again and again
|
| But they still sound the same
|
| It was in my eyes, in my eyes
|
| They were just easy lies
|
| And we’ve been a long time waiting
|
| And it’s been a lifetime in the making
|
| We said when you are alone and afraid
|
| I will come to your aid
|
| But was it just a dream, just a dream
|
| Cause it was real to me
|
| We say these words again and again
|
| But they still sound the same
|
| We say these words again and again
|
| And again and again |
