New Wings Songtext
von Umphrey’s McGee

If this is only just a microphone
Can anybody say what they really want?
Am I afraid that I always don′t?
Just tryin' to fake it

This could only be an afterthought
Can you give what you′re asking for?
Do you live in a plastic world?
Who's comin' to save it?

All those little changes, maybe they′re adding up
I tried to explain it to ya, maybe I′ve just begun
When you're always saying, "You′re not alone"
Know you're not alone

No, I didn′t mean to laugh at all
The reservations that I had are gone
Whatever happened didn't last that long
Nobody is safer


When it feels like it′s all too much
Kinda like we last discussed
I never kept score and I hate to judge
Beyond my best behavior

I'll give you one disclaimer
But maybe that's not enough
I′ll put it down on paper for ya
Maybe I′m growing up

But what's the indicator?
What′s the difference between now
And if we wait a little later?
I don't mind

And if we′re falling back in time
Crawling back inside
Talking circles
Just like we've rehearsed a thousand times

I know it′s always harder that it seems to
And if it's all the same, then I believe you
I'm not too far off from what you expected
I′m what you are, just a little bit more protected


That′s how I saw the indications
Starting to float into the conversations
I meant to call, but I'm in a situation
I need to crawl out, I need a little patience

Unless we′re falling back in time
Crawling back inside
Talking circles
Just like we've rehearsed a thousand times

All those little changes (falling back in time)
I tried to explain it (crawling back inside)
When you′re always saying (talking circles, just like we've)
You′re not alone (rehearsed a thousand times)
