WORN OUT TAPES

Has your voice been truly locked away?
Trapped inside these worn out tapes we've made
But maybe this is another dream I'll soon forget
So I'll put it with the rest and wait for you instead

Lately I've been starting down a TV screen
Just to get to sleep
Hoping I will never see an ending to the scene
Again

And lately I've been spending time with a ghost
Inside my head
She wonders why the line I'm not good enough
Is what I said

Have I just been holding on for far too long
And the rerun's done?
Lost in old magnetic tape, whispers in the haze
Meet me in the only place that you will ever know

Lately, I've been wearing out the tapes we made to feel okay
And I can't rely on nights without you, without you
So I can't, no, I won't deny the part of me that's part of you
