lyrics

We could not keep ourselves away that day
the room was rioting itself alive
and every face had a name known like home
the sum of everyone was no one alone
a long, long time ago i know i know i know
until it almost seems impossible
it even ever happened once, if at all:
the room held us within but had no walls

Days deliver years but the years just disappear
into the blur i can barely remember
history was made but forgotten about
but i still recall how the words moved your mouth

we never know our height until we see the ground
we never sense the loud until there is no sound
and in your darkest hour you finally see the light:
sometimes it takes the dying to bring you back to life

Days deliver years but the years just disappear
into the blur i can barely remember
history was made but forgotten about
but i still recall when the words moved your mouth

along with the song/you sang and were sung/
until you did become/a song unto yourself

you know the words you are
by heart
a song unto yourself.
