The Dodos - Substance lyrics

[Verse 1: Meric Long] Substance out of reach And take you with it, in silence We had hoped to put it out first And yet it's all that we are left with [Chorus: Meric Long] Words you never said Do we really mean them Someone give them to me now Words that I can say But you never hear them Someone's standing by the door The common man wouldn't give up his throne The common man wouldn't give up his throne [Verse 2: Meric Long] You're changing (?), and you don't even know it It's mine to discard, too ashamed to deserve it And you will forget and I will remember Everything changes, you don't know I exist [Chorus] [Outro: Meric Long] And you will forget, and I will remember (x4)
