lyrics

Were you listening the first time?
Or do you —-ever listen to me?
Cause what I’m sayin is a headline
That’s drowned out by everything

I find myself in the same situation through
Being left with something
That I need to prove

All this time looking for confirmation seems
It wasn’t meant for you
It wasn’t meant for me

Static popping on the phone line
Interfering with the melody

I’ll cross the country like an airline
If somebody would listen to me

I find myself in a strange situation where
Spiraling in circles
Leaves me standing there

I’m in the open when the walls start closing in
I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where I’ve been

You’ll find yourself in the same situation too

Being left with something that you need to do
All this time looking for some kind of answer seems
It wasn’t meant for you
It wasn’t meant for me

It seems to me we’re looking for the same thing
And I hope that it’s something we’ll need
That we’ll need

When every move you make can have repercussions
If you could do it all again who would you be?
