Did you see our brother? He was here the other day But he only came to say that he was leaving Did you see his lady? She was looking where he'd gone But she wasn't letting on that she was grieving She's bound to go Perhaps she'll find him waiting for his boat in some city far away She's bound to go Lately I remember Afternoons of smoke and wine There was nothing we could find but peace and pleasure And with a smile he told me That he wanted just to be On his way across the sea no man can measure He won't be back And the sun may find him sleeping in the dust of some ruin far away He won't be back Early today as I watched while the skyline was shaking I heard a rumbling Early today the mechanical city was waking And I ran out stumbling, mumbling Out through the laughter of children and dogs Did you see our brother? (Someone who had been away) He was here the other day (Suddenly came back today) (And I allowed a hope to stray into my mind) But he only came to say that he can't breathe here Did you see his lady? (For the moment, face to face) She was reaching for his hand (We looked back upon the place) (Where long ago we went to chase our careless time) Just as if to tell her man that she can't either They're bound to go (Oh, what do you know?) And the sun may find me running after them (Not what I've been feeling) Seeing something far away (The past is healing so slow) We won't be back (By tomorrow gone from sorrow)

Dear Miss Macy Won't you meet me outside Won't you meet me outside, baby? Dear Miss Macy Show a little backside Show a little backside, maybe Dear Miss Macy Are you feeling open Are you feeling open, baby? Dear Miss Macy I was only hoping I was only hoping I was only hoping I was only hoping Only hoping I was only hoping I was only I know, you know You're so hollow Shallow, and empty I fear you, Miss Macy Pin me to the floor I'm looking through your open door I watch you blow away again Away again Away again Away again Dear Miss Macy Thought you hadn't noticed Thought you hadn't noticed, lately Dear Miss Macy Thought that you should know this Thought that you should know this, Macy I know, you know You're so hollow Shallow, and empty I fear you, Miss Macy Pin me to the floor I'm looking through your open door I watch you blow away again Away again Away again Away again

I'm falling out the door again Don't tell me why Just tell me who and where and when I don't tell secrets anymore Packed up my lies and left them Right outside your door Yeah Changing of seasons, change of tides Springtime and summer came But autumn passed us by I don't like caring anymore Just change the politics And tell me what they're for Take it slow Let me go I am on my own Say something Break the chain I am going home Getting sick of growing old It's all downhill from here At least that's what I'm told I watched a film today, oh boy The Trojan army wasn't strong enough for Troy Take it slow Let me go I am on my own Say something Break the chain I am going home We've been running round in circles Doing what we're told We've been running round in circles Doing what we're told We've been running round in circles Doing what we're told You've been running round in circles Doing what you're told Take it slow Let me go I am on my own Say something Break the chain I am going home

Give it to me straight Tell me if I leave right now Will you come crawling back? Carrying the weight Of the world upon your shoulders Lay it on me now Run away and don't come back The thread inside my mind's about to snap I just can't follow you If I don't have the slack And can you feel it shake? Everyone around you Got so used to falling down Turned it into hate Blame it on the operator Dial tones toned out And I'm over it The ignorance is killing me right now I can't erase the taste Of you inside my mouth But if you want, I can stay And find a way to work it out I'll shed my skin for you again I'll find a way to work it out Bye-bye sweetie pie Better make your way to the end of the line Bye-bye sweetie pie Better wave bye-bye to the big blue sky Bye-bye sweetie pie Better make your way to the end of the line Bye-bye sweetie pie Better wave bye-bye to the big blue sky Yeah

It's winter again You know where I've been Let go of your sin, and perish And who are you now? And who let you in? I miss all my friends They don't know that I can't help it Breathe your air until I'm helpless Bite the stone and look into my eyes Summer's bitter lonely When your strife is strong Can you stop and slow me Down before I'm gone? I won't waste your time If you don't waste mine Oh, Limacine But I can't help if you feel lonely Nail me to the cross and stone me I'll be back for you in three days' time Cause you say you don't know me While you're dying slowly Summer's bitter lonely When your strife is strong Can you stop and slow me Down before I'm gone?

Forget the gold I want silver This always goes Like I'll pretend I didn't wanna go home Like I'll pretend I didn't come alone Then you will cry And I'll pretend I didn't wanna know why So I won't have to lay awake at night So scrape me silver Cut me open and see what's inside I'm new again, under you again Don't tell me I'm losing my mind I was the pinpoint in your mind You watch the pieces fall in line If I read the paper line by line I'd be just like you So do you think of things that haven't happened yet? Are you scared of things that haven't happened yet? Are you scared to be alone? Are you scared to be alone? So scrape me silver Cut me open and see what's inside I'm new again, under you again Don't tell me I'm losing my mind
