Lyrics

Always Coming Apart

I cut and ran
Tried to leave you behind
Tried to make a clean break
But you’re still in my mind

I can still hear you
I know just where you are
Wherever I go
You’re never very far

We come from the same place
The same part of town
But you’re still eating up
What I try to live down

For you it’s still home
I couldn’t stay
Which one is sadder
I really can’t say

We were always together
Always together
Always together
And always coming apart

You say you don’t recognize me
While I know you too well
And what makes you happy
Is my vision of hell

You’re mad that I have changed
While I’m sad you have not
Old worn out memories
Are all that we’ve got

We were always together
Always together
Always together
And always coming apart

I’m still slipping and struggling
Still nervous and dumb
But when I look back
I can see how far I’ve come

Born in the same place
The same part of town
But you’re still eating up
What I try to live down

You’ve made a life
With what drove me away
That’s all we have in common
That’s all there is to say

Always together
Always together
We were always together
And always coming apart
