Lyrics:

Broken promise
Lies open in a corner of the room
Empty feelings
Hang in the air like old perfume
Rhymes and reasons
Still wait untaken in my hand
Old excuses
There’s nothing here to understand

I told you, I told you
Too much about me, I don’t know
I told you, I told you
Always is just too far to go

Shadows, distance
I watch them fall across your face
I can’t touch them
And you can’t hide them any place
Endless circles
We’ve been here many times before
There’s no change now
You just can’t take it anymore

I told you, I told you
Too much about me ,I don’t know
I told you, I told you
Always is just too far to go
I told you
