lyrics

Will I ever find a way to show how I worked it out all by myself?
…and would you fucking believe a word I said? …and could you take it in?
Walking past your demands for attention.
Will never get me back.
[We'll get back. We'll get back again.]

In the shadows of ourselves.

They can run and dive, they can pretend it's the way it's meant to be.
Thinking back over past generations, is always good for grounding -
dreams today / your dreams.

…and we can hear them and we can feel them, but we cannot see their faces.
We'll get back. We'll get back again.
…and if you take away our means, then we will claw down with our fingers.
We'll get back. We'll get back.

No you can't believe me.
No you can't believe.

..and if I ever find a way to go. Then I will make my way out into the light
...and make the shadow to cast across your face.
We'll get back again.
[We'll get back. We'll get back again.]

I guess we're never getting to that show.
We may as well turn around and count our losses,
count our blessings,
just sit tight while waiting to see the change.
