Never Going To Catch Me

(album: Half-Light - 2017)

Please try your best but know you're never
Gonna catch me I had my back turned
And I never saw it happening
They tell you everything you'd ever
Want to believe but I haven't had
The chance to see the way that
Everything collapses

Now, now
Closer than you were before
Now, now
Easier than it was before
Now, now
Still not quite what you wanted so you
Have to start again, you have to start again

Please try your best but know
You're never gonna catch them
You'll have your back turned and you'll
Never see it happening
I did my best to understand it if
You believe that they haven't had the
Chance to see the way
The buildings each collapsed but

Now, now
Closer than you were before
Now, now
Easier than it ever was
Now, now
Still not quite what you wanted so you
Have to start again, you have to start again

I come up from underground on Houston street
I don't remember anything in front of me
I come up from underground on 13th street
I don't know exactly how to proceed

Please try your best but know you're never
Gonna catch me I had my back turned
And I never saw it happening
They tell you everything you'd see
Want to believe but I haven't had
The chance to see the way that
Everything collapses

Now, now
Closer than you were before
Now, now
Easier than it ever was
Now, now
Still not quite what you wanted so you
Have to start again, you have to start again
