Lyrics

I've been here the whole time

I've been present all along

Unclear and uptight

Feeling uncertain and tense

And you brought me on my way

You guided me on my journey

Then you had to fly away

Then you had to depart abruptly

I've been dusting off shelves

I've been neglecting important aspects

Telling lies to myself

Deceiving myself with false statements

I thought I knew what was true

I believed I understood the truth

Until I had to go find you

Until I had to search for you


I've been keeping up with the Jones

I've been trying to keep up with societal expectations

I just stood away at home

I remained passive at home

So don't close your eyes or it slips your mind

Be vigilant, as closing your eyes may cause you to forget


Things never go this well

Success is unusual for me

I didn't know if you could tell

Unsure if you noticed the positive turn

The way you say it isn't there

Your expression denies its existence

It's closer than you're aware

It's closer than you realize

I can't help it if there's a way

I cannot control it if there's a solution

There's an answer you can't say

An answer you're reluctant to vocalize

I thought I knew what was true

I believed I understood the truth

Until I had to go find you

Until I had to search for you


When you're next to me I feel fine

Your presence makes me feel content

Falling heavily - oh I needed it

Falling deeply - a necessary experience

Early morning - you got a busy day

In the early morning, you face a busy day

The dissonance that we create

The discord we generate
