You didn't really see the signs When you saw me buried in the sand You lose me to a new alliance Someday it's bound to slip out of your hands It isn't mathematical It's not some new equation you can solve It isn't even tactical It's just a case of losing me to myself It's just a case of losing me to myself I try to keep an open mind But walls are closing in from every side It's always sneaking up behind me We couldn't see the stars from all the light We listened to the radio the morning when I finally said goodbye We bought a big aquarium and filled it up with water from your eyes I am not the one for you
