lyrics

End of another week,
bleary-eyed and lacking sleep.
I need to go outside.
Sky is bleeding pink.
City lying in the stink,
spinning into the night.

Here's my first mistake.
Same one I always make.
Stop and think about
how I'm changing.

The tops of the trees
cling to the last sunlight.
I'm lost in a moment past.
There's a knocking in my head,
a knocking in my head,
there's a knocking in my head:
I'm never going back.

Hong Kong, early days,
lost myself in your love's haze.
Lie with you on the bed.
Kiss you on the nose,
Let you go where no-one else goes.
In my hands hold your head.

Then you slip away.
I'm trapped in today.
And I lose you all over again.

The night is black.
The stars look static.
They too are only moments past.
And the world is spinning round;
to me it's only ground,
but I know it's spinning round.
It's never going back.

I could never go back.
