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 have your back turned and you'll never saw 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 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 ever was
Now, now
Still not quite what you wanted so you
Have to start again, you have to start again
