lyrics

Words I don't mean
I don't care,
all the noughts and crosses you must bear
feeling bad about yourself
because it's free,
that's so like me.
But no more, I know this place
like the back of my face.
Words I don't mean
to live by,
words I don't mean,
I don't mean to live by,
bye...

This is the first time
I fell so far and bounced so high.
We should have made some kind of deal
before I told you how I feel.
Now
nothing is happening
so fast that something's wrong.
Time itself has stopped for me
but the world goes on
the world goes on,
the world goes on,
the world goes on,
the world goes on by.
The world goes on,
bye...

Words, I don't mean to live, I don't mean to live by
words I don't mean, I don't mean to live, bye.
Words I don't mean, I don't mean to live.

This is the last time
infinity is finishing.
Wrap it up now,
it's almost like you knew somehow.
Nothing is anything like
something's going on,
nowhere is anywhere
like somewhere I belong.
I belong
where I belong.

Words you didn't mean, I don't mind,
all the noughts and crosses I can find.
Feeling good about myself,
I'm happy to pay the price.
Why can't I ever take,
why can't I take my own advice?
It's words I don't mean,
I don't mean to live by
words I don't mean,
I don't mean to live.

This is the first time
there's no first time for everything and
I told you last time,
infinity is finishing cos
nothing is happening so fast that something's wrong,
nowhere is anywhere like somewhere I belong.
I belong
where I belong.

Words I don't mean
I don't say
but that doesn't mean they go away,
they go away.
Noughts and crosses on the brain,
god I fucking hate that game.

This is the last time,
it's like I said the last few times,
there's no first time for everything,
infinity is finishing and
nothing is anything like
something's going on,
nowhere is anywhere
like somewhere I belong.
I belong
where I belong.
Oh, I belong
where I belong.
