ZEPHYRUS

​

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"

 

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"

 

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 up for you)

 

And all you said in your quietest voice was:

"I needed you as much as they do"

 

And all you said in your quietest voice was:

"I needed you as much as they do"
