Lyrics
Where will you go the day they set you free?
Back to the junkies or your family?
This time please, please go home
Your voice on the phone, it crackles and it skips
Like an old broken record and I'm not used to it
And when we say goodbye, I feel it in my bones
I know you sometimes disappear
I know you do it out of fear
I don't know how to keep you here
In the universe
In The Universe With Me
What would I do if you were just somebody else
Hollowed out on the street and falling in on yourself?
I'd close my eyes; I'd save myself
I know you sometimes disappear
I know you do it out of fear
I don't know how to keep you here
In the universe
In the universe
Stars
Even though they're far apart
With a wink
They know what the other thinks
But not today
You're light years away
