I've been so lost so lost in the background
Though my heart slows time's going so fast now
I remember back when we were young
I meant all I said now I speak in tongues
I know it felt so far away
I'm now stuck with the things I can't replace
All these people saying they'll be there
But how many very few even really care
Made a broken promise couldn't follow through
Got an ache in my chest mine's hollow too
Don't make amends that you know you'll break
Just worsens the wound and the time it takes
I've been so lost so lost in the background
Though my heart slows time's going so fast now
I remember back when we were young
I meant all I said now I speak in tongues
Going back now stuck in conversation
No my mind's been pieced like a constellation
Late night talks with a open bottle
I've been going down the street up and down the cobble
Hands in my pockets I just keep to myself
But when I feel the need to preach I hope you feel it as well
Not much matters hate being awake
I just hope that you cherish every word that I say
Yeah I do like when they let me know
They heard my songs and to them it spoke
Sat and took in every word I wrote
We got a lot in common and they're not alone
Everyday we all got our problems
Though sometimes we can't always solve em
Know how it feels what you're going through
For the last 6 years yeah I felt it too
I've been so lost so lost in the background
Though my heart slows time's going so fast now
I remember back when we were young
I meant all I said now I speak in tongues
