Lyrics

Shame to shame when you fell apart
But you woke me up, in a dream and came to say
Please don't forget, just lay in wait
Pain the pain when you played the part
And you took it all up and you turned your back away
Try to forget, and well, okay
Read the words of The Captive Mind
And you tried to leave the past behind
But webs spun slightly, they catch those likely
To come back again, come back again
The same the same that you've always been
When you took it all up, what it took to do you in
And fall under and run away
Blame the blame on a broken heart
When you pack it all up and you make a start again
But call me up on my birthday
Read the words of The Captive Mind
And you tried to leave the past behind
But webs spun slightly, they catch those likely
To come back again, come back again
Gone in a boat
Your drifting soul
The walls you build
The push and pull
Come back again
Come back again
Well, you love to love, but you couldn't stay
So you gave it all up for the Mandalay Bay
The plastic beach and passing plates
Shame the shame when you fell apart
But you hold me up, and the dreamer came to say
"Please don't forget, just lay and wait"
Read the words of The Captive Mind
And you tried to leave the past behind
But webs spun slightly, they catch those likely
To come back again, please come back again
