They Never Will

Another day limps to an end, pull the covers over your head, and pretend you're safe, pretend everything’s ok.
But when you lie awake at night, are you honest with yourself, do you wish that you were happy, do you wish you were someone else. Things were different when this started, and things might get better still, but if we're really being honest…
You're pretty sure they never will.
Another painful memory, you just wanna bury your face and scream, is enough ever enough, won’t somebody come and wake me up, won’t somebody take me home.
But when you’re looking in the mirror, are you honest with yourself, do you wish that you were happy, do you wish you were someone else. Things were different when this started, and things might get better still, but if we're really being honest…
You're pretty sure they never will.
Little flames you never snuffed, are going to burn you down, you’ve gotta lift your head up, before you drown. Follow the sound, follow the sound.
And when you find a quiet moment, are you honest with yourself, do you wish that you were happy, do you wish you were someone else. Things were different when this started, and things might get better still, but if you’re really being honest…
You're pretty sure they never will.
And when you really think about it, are you honest with yourself, do you wish that you were happy, do you wish you were someone else. Things were different when this started, and things might get better still, but if we're really being honest…
You're pretty sure they never will. You know they will.

David Stone recommends:
Virtual Heaven
by Infinity Crush
Just found this by chance in the "if you like David Stone... section" - It's a beautifully warm record, clean and smooth, but without being polished to a shine. Perfect walking-in-Autumn record.
