from the songs album Tidal
never is a promise
You'll never see the courage i know
Its colors' richness won't appear within your view
I'll never glow - the way that you glow
Your presence dominates the judgements made on you
But as the scenery grows, i see in different lights
The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
My feelings swell and stretch; i see from greater heights
I understand what i am still too proud to mention - to you
You'll say you understand, but you don't understand
You'll say you'd never give up seeing eye to eye
But never is a promise, and you can't afford to lie
You'll never touch - these things that i hold
The skin of my emotions lies beneath my own
You'll never feel the heat of this soul
My fever burns me deeper than i've ever shown - to you
You'll say, don't fear your dreams, it's easier than it seems
You'll say you'd never let me fall from hopes so high
But never is a promise and you can't afford to lie
You'll never live the life that i live
I'll never live the life that wakes me in the night
You'll never hear the message i give
You'll say it looks as though i might give up this fight
But as the scenery grows, i see in different lights
The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
My feelings swell and stretch, i see from greater heights
I realize what i am now too smart to mention - to you
You'll say you understand, you'll never understand
I'll say i'll never wake up knowing how or why
I don't know what to believe in, you don't know who i am
You'll say i need appeasing when i start to cry
But never is a promise and i'll never need a lie
