The Background
Third Eye Blind Everything is quiet Since you're not around In the background And I live in the numbness now I do the things we did before I walk Haight Street to the store You don't get drunk on red wine And they say where's that crazy girl And fight no more I don't see you anymore Since the hospital The plans I make still have you in them 'Cause you come swimming into view The words they use so lightly And I'm hanging on your words Like I always used to do I only feel for you I only know because I carry you around In the background Words they come and memories all repeat I lift your head while they change the hospital sheets We were through And I would never lie to you No, I would never lie to you No, I felt you long after we were through The plans I make still have you in them And I'm hanging on your words 'Cause you come swimming into view The words they use so lightly I only feel for you Like I always used to do I only know because I carry you around In the background 'Cause I felt you long after we were through When you come swimming into view And I'm hanging on your words The words they use so lightly Like I always used to do I only know because I'm way, I'm way In the background I'm in the backgroundI only feel for you |
