Tell me a story of how it began
Show me the point of departure
There was a road we could have gone down
To avoid our recent disasters

I remember so well what you said to me:
We are who we were always going to be
We are always going to be who we are you
and me

I know the words they just make no sense
In past perfect future tense

Show me the place where things fell apart
Hand me a map of our actions
Give a clue where about a should start
Recording unholy transactions

I remember so well what you said to me:
We are who we were always going to be
We are always going to be who we are
Don't you see

I know the words they just make no sense
In past perfect future tense

I remember so well how you set me free;
We are who we were always going to be
We are always going to be who we are
Don't you see

I hear you now,
And it makes much more sense
In a past perfect future tense

It's hard to explain,
But it makes much more sense
In past perfect future tense
