Again & Again

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