No I will not lay down 
I will not live my life like a ghost in this town 
I am not lonely swear to God I'm just alone 

I'm back on my feet 
I can just close my eyes and forget everything 
My house is empty, every memory blown away 

Oh the sound of the wind through my bones 
makes me laugh 
at all the bodies I kissed and never knew 
Oh the sound of a lover's sympathy 
falling down to the floor 
just barely out of reach from me 

No I will not go back 
every word that's been hiding inside of my head 
is running blindly look behind me nothing's left 

I can sit in a room 
I can hear myself breathing and be quite amused 
life is simple like the wrinkles on my skin 

Oh the sound of the wind through my heart 
makes me glad 
for all the ones that never knew my name 
Oh the sound of a lover's sympathy 
I had to go 
could not stay here 
they were always out of reach from me
