Change Has Come to Stay Lyrics

Change she came like a whisper

And she had passed before I heard

All the truths I kept defending

One by one became absurd

And it’s too far home when no one comes round anymore

I keep my thoughts to myself and wonder why I never did before

Every moment I’m distracted

I lose the game I wouldn’t play

I sit on crumbling foundations

As piece-by-piece they fall away

I’m more silent now than in any year that I’ve left behind

And what remains is space so vast, the way out is too hard to find

I am he who cannot see

how everyone else found their way

I am he who can’t accept

That change has come to stay

That change has come to stay

That change has come to stay

Sometimes I walk alone for hours

Where I internalise my thoughts

I speak in half sarcastic clichés

In the hope I might be caught

But no one hears when they take you at the value of your face

And I grow hard to read when the past is what I still want to embrace

I am he who cannot see

how everyone else found their way

I am he who can’t accept

That change has come to stay

That change has come to stay

That change has come to stay

I am he who cannot see

how everyone else found their way

I am he who can’t accept

That change has come to stay

That change has come to stay

That change has come to stay
