Rainbirds - Apparently lyrics

rate me

A p p a r e n t l y

I travelled for hours

Just to find you sleeping

Noddin' back and forth

In a rocking chair with history

You were tied to its arms

By the sleeves of your shirt

The years didn't change your looks

Apparently

I waited for hours

Hopin' you'd wake up

Until I decided to leave a note:

"With love and sympathy"

I hugged you softly

Then I kissed you goodbye

There you decided to speak:

Now look what you've done to me

Nobody turned me down so heavily

You should have stayed where you were

You should have left me alone

Out here in space

Things don't change that fast

Apparently

Took two steps backwards

Into the shadow

I bang my head against the wall

I feel it hard and real

You say I'm disgraceful

I'm out to destroy

All of the dreams that are worth living for

Now they're coming to take you

They've pointed you out

To say that the fire is lit

And we're all allowed to start again

If it is that you dream of

All I can say

The years didn't change your ways

Apparently
