Lyrics

This all looks just the same
But I don’t know it now
But I know that it knows me
At least the me that I’d forgotten
You’re never bigger than the sound
Of all the nights that you’ve laid waste
And you’ll never get the bloodstains out
You’ll try but can’t forget the taste

Oh no, you’re only working it out now
You were only ever running home

They are casting and resetting stone
Life goes on but you would never know
If you’d forgotten how to use the phone
What’s behind you always catches up
The monster in the dream that never stops
If you’d forgotten how to use the damn phone

I hear your voice again
It’s inescapable
It’s in the rocks and trees
It’s in the aftermath
But in my head it’s louder still
It’s a spirit safe or trapped
They’re only words you’ve said before
There are just no new words left

Oh no, you’re only working it out now
You were only ever running home

They are casting and resetting stone
Life goes on but you would never know
If you’d forgotten how to use the phone
What’s behind you always catches up
The monster in the dream that never stops
If you’d forgotten how to use the damn phone

They are casting and resetting stone
Life goes on but you would never know
If you’d forgotten how to use the phone
What’s behind you always catches up
The monster in the dream that never stops
If you’d forgotten how to use the damn phone
