Again Songtext
von Levelline

Your hands and the rest of the world
Couldn′t exist in the same room
I wasn't waiting, I wasn′t counting
I was just here with you

You left and the phone became you
Just your name on the glass, not your face
I kept it close, I kept it lit
The only warmth in all that space

Again
Again

Every time you came back the world made sense
Every time you left it fell apart
I learned to build myself between your visits
And tear it down before the next one starts

Your voice got replaced by your words
Your words got replaced by your silence
I told myself it didn't sting
I told myself a lot of things


See you again
See you again
See you again

I watched the screen like it owed me something
Sat in the dark and called it love
A lifetime of almost, a lifetime of soon
A lifetime of nearly but never enough

I saw you read it and put me down
The way you put down everything
A check mark where an answer should have been
The smallest way to say nothing

Not again
Not again
Not again
Not again

I didn't leave, I just stopped arriving
Stopped reaching for the light behind the glass
The screen went dark because I let it
I was the one who disappeared at last


And when you finally came with everything
I couldn′t find where I kept mine
The door was open but the room was empty
You were on time for the first time

Never again
Never again
