Everybody Always Leaves Songtext
von Matthew Ryan

I remember sometimes when you never came home
How I crawled inside those sad and lovely bones
That you left behind, rarely held nor seen
Everybody always, everybody always leaves

It was a third world town in the great dead north
I felt a wedding bell shiver, folded hands divorced
From a prayer for the permanent, warmer tears on my sleeve
Everybody always, everybody always leaves

Sometimes I can't remember nothing
Sometimes it shadows everything
Some Sundays it's as loud as thunder
In the morning when the telephone rings
Clearer days in some distant forecast
Dark days in this present past
In the blur of some phantom widescreen
I'll let go of what I never had


She took a mouthful of rain with a gutter full of pills
She wrote, "I handled the pain but it's the hope that kills
So take care of yourself and don't worry about me
'Cause everybody alwaysm everybody always leaves"

Sometimes I can't remember nothing
Sometimes it shadows everything
Some Sundays it's as loud as thunder
In the morning when the telephone rings
Clearer days in some distant forecast
Dark days in this present past
In the blur of some phantom widescreen
I'll let go of what I never had

Don't leave, don't leave

Sometimes I can't remember nothing
Sometimes it shadows everything
Some Sundays it's as loud as thunder
In the morning when the telephone rings
Clearer days in some distant forecast
Dark days in this present past
In the blur of some phantom widescreen
I'll let go of what I never had

I will never understand


Sometimes I can't remember nothing
Sometimes it shadows everything
Some Sundays it's as loud as thunder
In the morning when the telephone rings
Clearer days in some distant forecast
Dark days in this present past
In the blur of some phantom widescreen
I'll let go of what I never had

In the blur of some phantom widescreen
I'll let go of what I never had
