I’ll Keep Trying To Explain Songtext
von Mindchatter

I tried to explain, but what is there to say
To the bird that′s in love with his cage?
Fly now, fly now, I pray
Fly now, you're free, fly away
My feelings operate on a one-week delay
So it hit me like clockwork today
′Cause pain always comes for its pay
It's not to be cheated or played


You can't fucking sing without listening
I should know by now, I should know
The things that you say really change a boy′s age
Now I′m two thousand years old

And what I have learned from this chapter we burned
Is a heaviness thicker than tar
I feel it in crowded bars
In corny pop songs in the car
It's permanent, probably, or like mandatory
A life sentence that I must keep
Like a child in my custody
Always present, even in my sleep


You can′t fucking sing without listening
I should know by now, I should know
The things that you say really change a boy's age
Now I′m two thousand years old
