Nothing But History - Gemini Club

Don’t forget what you know,

keep in mind what you don’t.

You say I move too fast,

I say you move too slow.

It’s not the speed.

How’d you forget all the history?

She’s at church on the weekdays,

the priest leaves and she stays.

«God better tear those walls down.»

Cause I can’t hold a flame,

to light a fire up in the rain.

The bed you made and the debts I pad,

won’t set me free.

There’s nowhere left to go until the back door breaks on me.

Don’t forget all that I said

with your lies in my head.

You can’t seem to say the words that I can see in your face.

So stay in all night,

because I might want to come over.

To keep what’s left and forget.

To keep what’s left and forget.

When you turn away

When you’re walking home

On winter’s night

I am there with you.

When you fall asleep

on the broken ground.

When you walk away.

I am here with you.

Keep your eyes on the road,

push down on the pedal,

may you listen now to the silence

that fills in every night

while you echo in this heart of mine.

and as the silence fades every page you write

turns back to me,

you’re so clever in disguise in the light of your own marquee.

There’s nothing but lights and they shine all night

cause you know,

There’s nothing but history, and nothing but me leaving you alone.

So stay in all night,

because I might want to come over.

To keep what’s left and forget.

To keep what’s left and forget.

When you turn away

When you’re walking home

On winter’s night

I am there with you.

When you fall asleep

on the broken ground.

When you walk away.

I am here with you.
