I Never Did

Let's start with what I remember
A simple truth
A walking through
Aged street lamps guide my adventures
Pure happenstance
A simple truth
Where we could go from here
is up to you
Not up to truth
What will it be my dear
an easy ruse with eyes light blue?
When I said I'd be coming home
I lied again
When I said I'd be right at your door
I never did
When I said that I needed more
I don't know what I needed
When I said I'd be coming home
I never did
A discrepancy keeps calling me
constantly
constantly
A discrepancy keeps calling me
constantly
constantly
Thought we'd be like everything we needed
but it's like nothing ever made sense
and it never will
What obviously
won't let us be
won't let us turn around
obviously won't let us be
won't let us turn around
through back gates
over neighbors yards
through window panes
into lovers arms
through back gates
over neighbors yards
through window panes
into lovers arms
just ramblings
just memories
memoirs of another life
through back gates
over neighbors yards
through window panes
into lovers arms

in absent days
you will seek us out
say we wasted time
never stood straight enough
had my bags packed before i was ready to go
in absent days
you will seek us out
say we wasted time
like your old songs
told in old ways
we are all whispering
to one another
only able to see where we've been
not where we'll go
a home won't stay where you are
it's a feeling that you've got to make
like your old songs
told in old ways
like your old songs
told in old ways
like your old songs
told in old ways
like your old songs

it took years to get here to say
standing still or lying down never feel right to me
all I've been and all I've seen doesn't mean anything
all I've been and all I've seen doesn't mean anything
if I can't say it to everyone the same way I would talk to you
I would stay up late to get my point across
held up to a cross
feeling lost and hating
it took years to get here to say
I've been broken and put back together in a different way
all I've been and all I've seen doesn't mean anything
all I've been and all I've seen doesn't mean anything
if I can't say it to everyone the same way I would talk to you
I would stay up late to get my point across
held up to a cross
feeling lost and hating

I only remember being set on fire
I only want to see this through
If only for a passing moment
If only lifetimes guaranteed
I would find out anything you needed
Laughing about some momentary bluff
Stand tall & ride this breaking moment
eyes forward
remember where you are
I would find out anything you needed
while smiling about life being tough
