lyrics

NOT REALLY THERE

All of a sudden you're in no hurry
The waking thought that we already know
The precious light that's meant to set you free
The paramount of who you decided to be

I wasn't really there for a while
I just happened to be out of this time
Setting the clock back to '93
What else should I be, but violently happy
There's a hole in the story, there's a ghost in the town
If you're looking away then you're already down
Down down

Just waking up from all of the bad dreams
Just waking up from all of the bad dreams

It's only as simple as can be
If it's coming for you then it's coming for me
Well I'm not reallly sure about this time
What if I could not change my mind
If only I knew in 1983
The murmurs were already talking to me
It would have been fine, fine

(I wasn't really there for a while)
(It's only as simple as can be)
(If you're looking away then you're already down)
(If it's coming for you then it's coming for me)
(I wasn't really there for a while)
(Setting the clock back to '73)
(I just happened to be out of this time)
(The dark side's already taken over me)
(It's only as simple as can be)
(Well I'm not really sure about this time)
(All of a sudden you're in no hurry)
(What if I could not change my mind)
(What if I was around in '63...)
(The paramount of who you decided to be)
(I wasn't really there for a while)
