The Remote Part lyrics

There are times that I should try, to be so much more alive
But if time was right then I would be with you again
Or do you worry that I try to avoid the point and then deny
The time I spent deciding it was you again

It’s when I live in a hiding place
It’s the only way I feel safe
When I’m safe in a hiding place
(that’s not hidden now)
I’m safe in a hiding place

I created myself to be on my own
But I didn’t expect to be alone
Did you create yourself to be on your own?
These are the reasons things should be unknown

The days won’t let you know
Days won’t let you know

That all I never wanted was to be there with you
All I ever wanted to know anywhere with you

No one creates themself unless they try to
Shut up the caution that made them lie to

If I know, what I know, then no one will watch over you
So someone shouldn’t really tell me what I want to know
I know, I owe, and I know that matters don’t matter as much
As you think they do

You will only be yourself
When you can never be yourself
And you will only be yourself
When you understand what you know

How long, will we go on with a modern way of letting go,

It sometimes happens, it always happens to me
But then "always" isn’t a word I use, "always" isn’t a word I choose
When I know that this won’t survive much longer
Unless we alter what we have
But then again survival is not why we should

Stay the same, if we can’t be the same
We won’t stay the same
Our similar thoughts will never let us
Stay the same, if we can’t be the same

Out of routine, the explanations you have
You’re still loathe to give them
All because you’ve phrased it in a way
So the explanations you have
The words don’t go away

If your heart gets in the way of what you wanted
To deny everything I say is not uncommon
The only thing that’s definitely forgotten
Is what you wanted
And what you really needed

Calling places, collecting careless
Sentences I write them down
So I ignore them, and you should too, you should ignore every word
Is calling what you can surrender
The only way to really learn
That the alphabet made up the words
You could never resist to quote

If all this wisdom is true
Then I doubt it could really have come from you

Then I am what I am not, I am what I am not

Songs when the truth are all dedicated to you
In this invisible world I choose to live in
And if you believe that now I understand
Why words mean so much to you, they’ll never be about you

Maybe you’re young without youth
Or maybe you’re old without knowing anything true
I think you’re young without youth

Then you contract the American dream, you never look up once

Every face, even the one you saw yesterday
It looks different today,
Because everything’s changed since yesterday
In every possible way, things seem different today,
Not like yesterday

Is consideration, more like an exception, of consideration?

You held the world in your arms tonight
And what if you held the world in your arms

When you’re secure, do you feel much safer?

In the beginning, there were answers
Then they came along and changed
All these questions and their answers seem to change

So I’ll wait ‘til I find the remote part of your heart
Nowhere else will let us choose a comfortable start

We stop in every passing place
To watch the world move faster than we do
Watch it pass with our eyes closed the way we usually choose to

Since your breathing, is it all that a space can fill?
So just by looking in, I’ll be looking still
You find and follow stories well
You’re naked except for a newspaper, the headline telling me
That fortune favours the brave
I’ve been known to be that brave
What I want is on it's way out
All I needed was an easier way to stay

I have to stop saying “to be honest”, it’s not a real defeat
To have to stop saying "to be honest", it’s not a great defeat
(No, no, no, not such a great defeat)

All these things that you don’t know, it seems so much better that way
All these things that you don’t know, it seems so much better that way

Can you tell me 10 words that you’d use, to describe the world
