Never
Binocular Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause I never wanna know
So just run run away
But the shadows take your place
It's a long and lonely road
If you take it, take it home
I knew the time was near
And if you say that you were mine
Then I believe that's a crime
And if you live by candlelight
Then the faded, then the faded memory lines
They go away
'Cause I never wanna know
So just run, run away
But the shadows take your place
No lies could shelter you
But you hide them, hide them well
But morning comes too soon
And it's too late, too late to tell
And if you say, that you believed
Then the memories, they deceive
And if today you spread your wings
And the feelings, and the feelings never change
They go away like the leaf
You'll get stripped away
So just run, run away
But the shadows still remain, they still remain
That day
We hid behind our words until we lied
That day
We promised that we'd never turn away
That day
We slipped into the night not to be seen
That day
When I opened up my eyes
So just go, go away
'Cause I never wanna know
So just run, run away
But the shadows take your place
So just fall, fall away
Like the leaf you'll get stripped away
So just run, run away
'Cause you will never, you will never see my face
'Cause you will never, you will never see my face

So just go go away
I want you to leave me and never come back
'Cause I never wanna know
I don't want to find out about your lies and deceit
So just run run away
I want you to run away from me and my life
But the shadows take your place
The memories of you will always be present even if you are physically not
It's a long and lonely road
Life is difficult and hard when you're alone
If you take it, take it home
If you choose to walk that road, do it by yourself
I knew the time was near
I could sense that the end was coming soon
But you had me, had me wrong
You misunderstood my feelings for you, I never truly cared
And if you say that you were mine
If you claim that we had something special, that's a lie
Then I believe that's a crime
The fact that you would lie about that is an offense in my eyes
And if you live by candlelight
If you choose to live in the past and hold onto the memories that never existed
Then the faded, then the faded memory lines
The memories will slowly fade away into obscurity
No lies could shelter you
No matter what you say, the truth will eventually catch up to you
But you hide them, hide them well
You're good at keeping your lies hidden and disguised
But morning comes too soon
Time goes by quickly and before we know it, it's too late to change anything
And it's too late, too late to tell
It's too late to admit to the lies and deceit
And if you say, that you believed
If you claim that you truly believed in the lies
Then the memories, they deceive
The memories of the lies will trick and deceive you
And if today you spread your wings
If you choose to move on and leave me behind
And the feelings, and the feelings never change
The feelings of hurt, betrayal, and anger will never fade
They go away
The memories of you will fade away
'Cause I never wanna know
I don't want to remember the lies and deceit
So just run, run away
I want you to leave me and never come back
But the shadows take your place
The memories of you will always be present even if you are physically not
That day
The day we decided to lie to each other
We hid behind our words until we lied
We pretended everything was okay until we both knew it wasn't
We promised that we'd never turn away
We promised to never leave each other
We slipped into the night not to be seen
We left each other's lives secretly and didn't want to be found
When I opened up my eyes
When I finally saw the truth and realized what had happened
So just fall, fall away
I want you to fall out of my life and never come back
Like the leaf you'll get stripped away
You will fade away like a leaf in the wind
'Cause you will never, you will never see my face
I will make sure that we never cross paths again
