lyrics

If you can remember can you remember me
if I disappont promise not to flee
if you grown unsteady you can take my hand
if you can pierce the veil can you understand
days and days and days like this

Light turns away and bang its head
against the wall on your side of the bed
congregation's gone strangers take their place
and all that's left is fear to fill the empty space
after days and days and days like this
everybody gone
no one left to miss
days and days and days like this

Is it true what they say
that loves gets in the way
makes people hang around
when they shoulda left town
days and days and days like this
suddenly it dawns
ignorance ain't bliss
after days and days and days like this

Chalk on a chalkboard pencil on a pad
scratch away the lovers that each of us has had
leave tunnel vision and a human touch
nothing really matters
it doesn't matter much after
days and days and days like this
after all this time
betrayed with a kiss
days and days and days like this

Is it true what they say
that loves gets in the way
makes people hang around
when they shoulda left town
days and days and days like this

Time arrives...then it gets confused
about which clock it's supposed to use
so while it ponders what's at stake
there's these little pills I'm supposed to take
after days and days and days like this
after all this time
betrayed with a kiss
after days and days and days like this
