Third Eye Blind || The background

Everything is quiet since you're not around 
And I live in the numbness now 
In the background 
I do the things we did before 
I walk Haight Street to the store 
And they say where's that crazy girl 
You don't get drunk on red wine and fight no more 
I don't see you anymore since the hospital 
The plans I make still have you in them 

Cause you come swimming into view 
And I'm hanging on your words 
Like I always used to do 
The words they use so lightly 
I only feel for you 
I only know because I carry you around 
In the background 
I'm in the background 

Words they come and memories all repeat 
I lift your head while they change the hospital sheets 
And I would never lie to you no 
I would never lie to you no 
I felt you long after we were through, we were through 
The plans I make still have you in them 

Cause you come swimming into view 
And I'm hanging on your words 
Like I always used to do 
The words they use so lightly 
I only feel for you 
I only know because I carry you around 
In the background 

Cause I felt you long after we were through 

Well you come swimming into view 
And I'm hanging on your words 
Like I always used to do 
The words they use so lightly 
I only feel to you 
I only know because 
I'm way I'm way in the background 
I'm in the background
