Substance

[Verse 1: Meric Long]
Substance out of reach
And take you with it, in silence
We had hoped to put it out first
And yet it’s all that we are left with

[Chorus: Meric Long]
Words you never said
Do we really mean them
Someone give them to me now
Words that I can say
But you never hear them
Someone’s standing by the door
The common man wouldn't give up his throne
The common man wouldn't give up his throne

[Verse 2: Meric Long]
You’re changing (?), and you don’t even know it
It’s mine to discard, too ashamed to deserve it
And you will forget and I will remember
Everything changes, you don’t know I exist

[Chorus]

[Outro: Meric Long]
And you will forget, and I will remember (x4)
